I've been told never use a razor blade since it scratches the glass and can create air bubbles if you ever have it done again later.

This is how I was told to do it. Spray it down with ammonia windex and then loosely wrap a garbage bag around the tinted side and tape it to the car without it touching the tint. From there place it in the sun or use a heat gun on the opposite (outside) side of the tint. The chemical reaction supposedly makes it fall off the glass. Then just use glue remover of some kind (light solvent) to remove the excess.

Worth a try, but thats what I was told by a tint shop about my Civic.
