    Tips on breaking open a BGS holder

    I would like to re-submit a Ming auto that was a 8.5 (9.5 centering, 9s on edges/surface, but a 8 on corners). I swore the corners were the best part about the card!!

    I have gotten BGS 9s that I swore were 8.5s and a few 9s, so I know this card has a shot.

    Now, my question is...does anybody know a SAFE way to break open the case w/o damaging the card? I heard about the hammer method and the thin screwdriver method. Anybody here have something to recommend?

    Thanks,
    Vic
