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?

I don't use Kilner jars but can appreciate your problem. Just a couple
of thoughts.
1. Lightly grease the rims before closing.

No! That will react with the rubber seal.

Yep. Better to have amended that to the glass below the rubber seal.
