Mark it evenly with toothpicks. Use a serrated knife and cut slowly, pressing down on the top of the cake as you do it.

You could also use dental floss or fishing line. Mark the cake with toothpicks. Wrap a piece of floss around the cake, cross the ends, then pull.

I just use ordinary sewing cotton and pull it through with a gentle, slightly sawing action.
