How to find my private key?

Metamask provided me with a secret recovery phrase which I use to recover my wallet on a new device or after reinstalling the extension. However, I need to use my private key to deploy a contract outside of metamask. How do I get the private key?

Plus one!

I know the private key is (supposedly) kept on my device only. But where is it? How do I see it so that I could do with it whatever I like?

Like, for example, build my own wallet to juggle the funds kept in MetaMask, which is (reportedly) non-custodial wallet?

How come this topic has not got an answer after 3+ years?
