What's the best way to carefully open a fedex envelope?

I mangled two Fed Ex envelopes trying to pick apart the plastic airbill pocket.

I have tried scratching, pinching, pulling, rubbing - you name it. The plastic just stretches... mocking me. I finally gouged it open with a paperclip.

But it looks like I hacked at the seam.

Is there a trick to get a little finesse?

Update:

AM-NM centaur - GREAT solution.

It's all about vanity/perception on my part. I want to give the illusion to my customer that I have actually evolved and didn't use a rock to open the package.

    Do you mean so your efforts go undetected by the actual recipient, or are you preserving the envelope because you think it might have collector value?

    I use a Xacto(tm) knife to slice open the plastic airbill envelopes.

    A SHARP PAPER CUTTER OR SCISSORS SHOULD HELP .
