Default Oil filter question >

I did Auto Rx cleaning phase and now rinsing phase. I am planning to open the filters and take pictures of the deposits inside in order to see the results.

What is the best way to open and oil filter? That thing is %^%%^(% \er to open ! I tried everything. The oil filter is made by mighty autoparts with a large capacity.

Any tools or techniques?
