a knife wont work. you need something small and grainy like a drummle tool or something of that sort. I use the little stones that come with my GH kits to score my test amps.

guess i have to find something of that sort. i dont have a dremel and Serostim GH i have doesnt have these stones. I will have to get creative THX for advice big guy !!

Q: What is the correct way to open glass ampules?

A: Glass ampules are a real pain. The proper way to open them is to score them around the narrowest part of their neck. To score these glass ampules it is best to use a metal knife with small teeth. Occasionally, these are provided with the ampule and these knives work best. If these knives are not provided it occasionally works to use a fingernail file, grapefruit knife, or a type of kitchen knife with very small teeth. This knife should be rotated around the narrow part of the neck in a sawing motion. After a white line or "score' is clearly evident on the neck, the ampule is ready to be cracked open. Before cracking the ampule open, it should be placed inside a clean paper towel or a thin clean cotton towel one hand should firmly grasp the lower portion of the ampule, the other hand should grasp the very top. A quick snapping motion should cleanly remove the top of the ampule. A needle can then be inserted and the liquid drawn out. Do not try to crack open an ampule without scoring it or by using your fingers directly against the glass ampule. Occasionally the glass ampule can shatter and this glass can cause a serious cut.

use a file, and filter that winny through a coffee filter and drink it or toss it. Dont even attempt injecting anything with little pieces of glass floating in it.

My opener is dull now and is making opening my karachis a pain in the ass. Hardly ever get them to pop open easily.

-That would have been my suggestion - much to my girlfriends dislike. "Are you using my nailfile to open your stuff?" No honey, just giving myself a manicure. Somehow she never believed that.
