Flat head at top seam and smash it.....preferably on concrete floor in your garage (so the flying plastic shards do not impale your family while watching TV!)

Same motion a few times at the top seam to make sure it blasts away. Then with the flat head, I just gently pry the 2 pieces apart and gently pull them apart with my 2 hands when I can grab them.

Sounds crazy and shaky but I have never damaged a card. PSA and SGC are fine also but I always do worry when the card is not in a protective sleeve like on BVG cards but still never hurt a card..........."knock on wood"

Peace, Mik
