SD CARD PACKAGING REMOVAL

I sometimes wonder who has the delightful job of designing packaging to frustrate users.

Recently I bought a mini SD card from TDK.  As well packaged as this device was it required a box cutter to remove it from the packaging.  By the time I found a box cutter I had forgotten where I put the SD card.  When I eventually found the SD card I nearly sliced my fingers off trying to cut through the packaging.  AND then the box cutter slipped as I was trying to pry the mini SD card out of its plastic covering and the SD card went flying.  Finding that tiny itsy-bitsy little thing in the car took me nearly half an hour.  By the time I found the card I had mislaid my new phone.

There is a fair amount of danger here as people over 50 only really want SD cards for their cell phones and we shouldn't be handing sharp knives to old people or children under 10.

Is there a quick way to get the packaging off these SD cards?
