To remove a card from a slab, this is what I do:
1. Put the card on a towel in one of the corners of a table
2. Hold the card firmly with my left hand
3. With my right hand, use a pair of pliers to break away each corner of the holder. (I typically turn my head as I break the corners because pieces go flying everywhere.)
4. Find the corner with the most damage and slip a long flathead screwdriver in that corner
5. Once inserted, gently push the screwdriver along the edge of the holder to break the seal. Gently rotate and incline the screwdriver as you push.
6. Repeat along the other edges until the seal on all edges has been broken
