Default OT opening Kilner jars

I always have a problem opening Klner jars, the type with a glass lid.
Releasing the vacuum can be a PITA, the problem is one can easily chip the
lid or bottle rim. Has anyone found an easy fool proof way of opening them?

Not in this country, but when I was in Germany at a fleamarket there was
something to be bought for 1 euro to do just that. No-one knew what it was
for until my German friend asked what it was, and then she bought it for
herself;-)
So there is a special thingie.
