I put the bag in the sink (just in case!), and hold it with one hand at the top, and give the cap a major yank without squeezing the bag. (Or you can leave the bag in the box, to avoid accidentally squeezing the bag).

I use a butter knife. Just make sure you are holding the neck of the bag very tight and that it's slightly elevated, or you'll wind up with juice all over your shorts.
Good thing I don't wear shorts while brewing. Wait, what?

Pretty sure there's a tool for that. I think I saw it on a Craigtube video...
Worked like a charm. Thanks.

Stubby handled #2 Standard screw driver blade. Never fails to cleanly pop those pesky caps. On average I do 10-12 wine kits per year, many of which have grape skin packs, so several "2-fer" kits.
