Hi
I use wire cutters like on a Morion I find a small lip and start pealing it 
 away. No trauma for the OCXO and simple.

Hi

If you are tossing the can, a mill is by far the best way  to open up an 
OCXO. That of course assumes you have a mill…

It’s not a  chip intensive process. You can easily do it with an X/Y table 
on a drill  press. Of course that assumes you have all of that  stuff….
