Patrick McMenemySo far, The Beckett slab has been the toughest by far. I purchased a slabbed OBAK that I liberated successfully.
Used a hammer and a flathead screw driver. The Beckett slab is tough because it's difficult to find a seam. I started at the top corners above the label. Unlike other slabs that quickly slit in two when the seem is found, the Beckett required some careful chipping away at the corners, once the seam was reached, she split like an oyster.
Just requires more patience and a firm whack with the hammer on the head of the flathead screwdriver. Expect small pieces to fly off until the seam is reached.
Be careful and good luck!
