Thirty years ago was the last time that I laid an Amtico floor.
I have to replace one shortly following a flood.
I recall that to cut round the shape of the toilet bowl I used a Stanley knife and it was tortuous but OK.
Is there an easier, more reliable method? Is a Jig Saw OTT?

Remove toilet bowl. Fit floor. Replace bowl and be proud.
I just did a couple of Karndean floors, and score and snap with a stanley knife seemed to be the way to go.
Having said that I would tile under the toilet anyway - most can be pulled out with undoing 2 to 4 screws.
With a hacksaw blade and the speed set at the lower end that would probably work as well.
Remove toilet, tile the floor, reinstate toilet, run a beados silicone around the base of the toilet pan.
