Tires are manufactured using thick and very durable rubber which confers on them exemplary resilience, and for that reason, you need special tools in order to get through them. Sometimes, however, we may need to cut them for proper disposal. The question, therefore, is whether we can cut them using a knife. Definitely, we can cut off the sidewall of any tire using a sharp knife especially a serrated and sharp one by cutting it at the seams. You can equally do so with a high-powered cutting tool like a circular saw or Dremel fitted with a blade.
So, yes, you can pop a tire with a knife. It depends on certain factors. However, it is unlikely, except in extreme circumstances, for tires to pop if you stab them with a knife. Yes, it is quite possible to pop a tire with a knife in some cases, but absolute care must be taken to ensure that the tire does not blow in your face. Using a sharp and serrated knife, stand while facing away and with the tire between your legs.
Then, start making small radial cuts on the sides of the tire. And after several cuts, push the knife into the tire at an angle. A cut deep enough through the sidewall of the tire will start to release the air in it. By maintaining your stealth, you can accomplish this process quietly.
A small cut is enough to give any tire a small puncture which will be adequate to let the air out slowly. If on the other hand, you make a large cut, the air will escape with considerable noise. You can also pop the tire with a knife by thrusting the tip of its blade straight into the smooth surface of the rubber about an inch or 2.
The best knife to use in popping a tire is a sharp and preferably serrated knife that also has a pointed tip for piercing the rubber easily. Before you pop a tire with a knife, start by puncturing the sidewall in order to simplify the procedure and also brace the tire by placing the sole of your foot on the lower section of the tire or kneel down and pin it to the ground with one knee.
Otherwise, the tire may rock or shift when you start cutting. In cutting tires, position the knife with the blade pointing towards you and slowly guiding it down between your legs, for maximum leverage. Also, in order to prevent accidents, place only one foot or knee on a section of the tire as you cut through it. Several items can be used to pop a tire such as a high-powered cutting tool, circular saw, Dremel, awl, bodkin, pricker, bradawl, prod, or piercer.
