Splitting Armored Cable

Anyone have advice? I've watched YouTube videos and the electrician who thought he could do it have all failed me. It's Corning Altos Lite Single Jack, Single Armored Cable. After cutting the outside it is impossible to remove from the steel jacket and cutting through both you have a very high chance to hit the fiber. The sales sheet says easy to split polyethylene jacket..lies. Can't get in the jacket to get to the rip cords. Videos make getting through the jacket look easy, then cut the armor, twist and remove..as if.
