The best option you have really are to keep at it. If the latch isn't an issue, try and push the cable down towards the motherboard and then pull back up. Try gently rocking it from side to side as you pull up. You mentioned a knife (i would have thought a jewelers flat head) but that's been the end all last resort that has worked for me.

Like Phillip said, cutting the wires won't get you far as the end is still in the motherboard and you don't just twist cut wires together to work.
