I've use a chisel and lump hammer before. Alternate the blows on the cut outs. top/bottom/top/bottom if you get me. Warm it up too with the missis's hair dryer, hotter the better.

eBay item number 171025561618 is what I use on that type of freewheel ( as said you will need a vice bolted to a sturdy bench )

I could send it to you but the time there's postage involved you may as well buy one so you have it for next time.
