Default How do I crack open a PSA "slab"?

I just purchased a pocket schedule that was graded by PSA. I would like to take it out of the slab. How do I do this? I don't care if I ruin the slab. Thanks!

There are lots of Youtube vids showing how. Just pick the one that suites you best. Dpeck100 on here has a Beckett crackout vid that worked great for me.

PSA Slabs are indeed easy. I have cracked open a bunch of mis-graded and ugly looking PSA cards, with no issues at all. Just follow the video, as it's right on the mark.

Beckett is a little tougher, as that plastic is thick. It takes a strong grip and perhaps a larger cutter. But still a lot easier than bleaching a pennant.

Good luck!
