Once you get the blade in, you can just apply a little leverage and it will usually snap right open (or at least enough to extract the card).

It also has the added benefit of keeping the holder intact in case you decide to sell the raw card down the line. You can include the holder when you sell as proof of its former grade...
If you forget the PSA slab, this sounds like a neurosurgical procedure........

Hold you son upright in the garage and split him open from the top with a hammer and a butter knife.......

Or child abuse.
