Rent one of those portable band saws and cut them square. You can also cut with a torch if you know what you are doing and have a torch that can handle it. You can then square them off with a disk grinder and remove all trace of torch cut. It would take a while but I could make them look like they'd never been altered. The band saw however would do a great job faster.
