I have done that many times and also cut open & inspect the oil filter on engines that I have built.The only thing I ever found in the filters was gasket goop & silicone.If you find metal particles that are visable to the naked eye you have a lot larger problem to deal with!
With the modern engine manufacturing,oils & filtering used,I think this is overkill on a street motor.Changing the oil out at 2000 kms does make sense though.
