Well, if you're skilled and stubborn it is possible to use a hammer and a drift punch to open (and close) a bicycle chain, but it will take easily 3-4 times as long as using a chain breaker.

How do you clean mountain bike?
A clean bike chain is essential for a smooth and efficient ride. Here are the steps to clean your bike chain properly: Remove: If your chain has a master link, you can easily detach it from the bike. If not, you can use a chain tool to break the chain at any link. Degrease: Use a degreaser spray or a solvent to soak the chain and dissolve the dirt and grease. You can use a brush or a rag to scrub the chain gently. Rinse: Use water to rinse off the degreaser and the dirt from the chain. Make sure the chain is completely clean and dry before reattaching it to the bike. Lubricate: Apply a thin layer of lubricant to each link of the chain. Wipe off any excess lubricant with a rag. Lubricating the chain will prevent rust and reduce friction. By following these steps, you can keep your bike chain in good condition and enjoy a better riding experience. These were the simple steps to clean your bike chain.

How do you cut i bike chain?
To remove a bike chain, there is a special tool called a chain break tool, available at bike shops. What this tool does is push out a pin holding the links together. In an emergency, you could possibly use a vise to hold the chain, and a small nail punch to push out the pin. Using the tool designed for the job is much easier. If you are replacing links in the chain, or putting a new one on the bike, the tool can be used toreinstall the pin. Be careful when you push the pin out, that you don't push it completely out of both sides of the link. You want the pin to remain attached to one side of one link, or else you will spend a lot of time getting the pin reattached The tool can be somewhat expensive, so ask how much the bike shop would charge to remove the old worn out/rusty chain and install a new one. Refer to SheldonBrown.com/chains.html for more information and pictures to explain chain removal.
