Afaict ssh-keygen from OpenSSH can do that:
-i      This option will read an unencrypted private (or public) key file
        in SSH2-compatible format and print an OpenSSH compatible private
        (or public) key to stdout.  ssh-keygen also reads the `SECSH
        Public Key File Format'.  This option allows importing keys from
        several commercial SSH implementations.

"unencrypted" probably refers to "empty passphrase".
