I have cracked out my last Becketts encapsulated card.
Posted By: <b>identify7</b><p>Their new design makes opening the case, in my estimation, for too dangerous to the card. It incorporates a recessed cradle on the rear half, into which fits the entire front section. This results in no middle seam available for prying.<br /><br />In trying to overcome this design with force upgraded to an actual small screwdriver, I found that the potential for damage to myself or surroundings was too great in case of slippage.<br /><br />I therefore adjourned this frivolity to the basement, my vise, and couldn't find the hacksaw, so used a sheetrock keyhole saw. Made quick work of the project, but the name of the project was a BVG 1.5<br /><br />If it had been a card in a higher state of preservation, it could take too long to safely free it from its constraint. I therefore abandon purchasing any more of these BVG holdered cards.

Posted By: <b>Richard</b><p>That's because you are cracking them the wrong way. There have been threads about this in the past. You use a flat head screwdriver and whack it in the center - it cracks in half.<br /><br /><br />
