cracking holders

Hi all,

Sorry to admit but I actually have one card in a PRO holder and one in a BVG holder.

Anyone have any advice on how to crack these suckers without damaging either my hands or the cards?

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards,

  • If that PRO holder is made of the same stuff as USA -- a blow torch and an ice pick or perhaps a chainsaw...I've found that Dobermans work pretty well, although it could take hours and they slime up the stock pretty good. It won't matter as the card is probably trimmed anyway. Good luck though.

    Seriously, cut carefully when you get to the inner sleeve of that beckett. Also, you may want to wear goggles or place the holder in a plastic bag before cracking it--stuff flies.
