As above I use a razor saw. Be very gentle and take your time. A craft knife will just break, split the resin.
Also wear a face mask. Resin is bad news if inhaled.

I’ve always used a razer saw remove the casting blocks from resin parts.
I’ve found that if the block is big enough, put it in a vice, restrain the resin part by hand, and saw as close to the joint line as you feel comfortable with.
Hope this is of some help.
