Sounds like you hit a snag... Nothing really to worry about if you werent sticking your head in the bag with the punctured battery.

Was this an OEM battery that was being replaced from the i6 or was it 3rd Party? When we remove batteries that have gone bad or already in the death/swollen stage they start to smell very sweet, kinda fruity if you want to put a flavor to it.

Once it has gone to that point I would hesitate using anything sharp near the damn thing.

Tip to removing the Magic tape from iPhones
--------------------------------------------------------------
If the iphone still has the original tape on the battery....
--------------------------------------------------------------

• Using a pair of either fine tip or rounded edge tweezers
  
• Get a good grip on the black tab
  
• Start to rotate the Tweezers towards the battery so the white tape coils around the tip.
  
• Do not pull it towards you too quickly or else the tape will snap and it just makes the removal that much more a pain in the ass.
  
  If done properly, you should be able to remove both strips within 40 seconds. (or less).
  
  now....
  --------------------------------------------------------------
  If you DUN GOOFED and the tape is UNDER the battery....
  --------------------------------------------------------------
  
• If you were to break both strips and they're all the way on the bottom, I would use an iSesamo to slowly scrape the bottm layer of the adhesive, while trying to lift the battery to be able to grab the tape again.
  
  hope it helps and you shouldn't need the fear of contracting popcorn lung.

If it has a removable battery, pop it out and look for more screws under. When you're pretty sure you have all of the screws out, use a very, VERY thin flat blade or a spudger to pry the lower housing free. There will likely be clips every inch or two around the edges.

Also check Youtube, lots of people make disassembly guides for laptops.

You NEED to get one of these if you don't have one already. The single best metal pry tool I've ever used and I use it for every phone/laptop repair

I used one like this to crack open my t560. The part that was tough was the part near the battery where you need a screwdriver to jab up that last bit.

The 2nd time through its much easier, only a thin metal spudger required.

A new quiver would not go amiss as my DIY one tends to collapse. Otherwise, I'm always running out of loc-tight and I go through pry-tools like nobody's business.

Dunno if this will help or not: https://www.amazon.com/Newer-Tech-TOOLISESAMO-iSesamo-Electronic/dp/B00792JJK4

I love this thing. I use it all the time while doing small device repairs.

Get one of these tools for your precinct, and remove the grip pads from the sides.
