I just opened my rc cola with a knife by gently twisting a sharp knife in the groove where it breaks, gave a loud bang and the tab broke upwards

Take some scissors, then with the blade, go over the little line when the cap is, then you you hit the cap a few times with something. Voila.

same thing happen to me as well, while i was at work, but i found a way to open it though..

just in case if its happen again,…
1- grab pair of scissors and a steel scale (or staple removal)
2- hook the scale under small bolt shaped thing (lol @ thing) and pull it with steady hand till you hear gas escape noise
3- grab the bolt with scissors and enjoy your drink.
dont try to knock the top part, it will just mess up with your drink and wont be useful (as per my experience)

Thanks, but I don’t have this kind of thing at work.

However, a friend showed me a way to do this:
Take a knife and put its edge against the crack around the tab, so that the knife stands vertically pointing down. Gently (!) hit the knife downwards and the crack will open slightly. Then you can use your finger to push the entire tab inside the can and enjoy your soda.
