Yes. I make a 1/4 inch, or so, cut, on the side, near the top, not into or through the seal, and the bags rip right open easily.
That's exactly what I was wondering about: a small slit outside the sealed portion, in the leftover part of the bag, to serve as a "starter" for ripping it open.

The ink cartridges for my printer come in vac-sealed plastic, with a little v-notch for tearing them open. That's what made me think of it.

Thanks!
