Tool for removing serving material

[Watch_Man]

I have found a second use for a watch spring bar removing tool such as can be found - http://www.cousinsuk.com/default.asp...oductid=455411 at £6.76 It is excellent for removing serving material, the pin end can tease out the serving and the fork end can pull out and cut through the serving material.

Or a seam ripper...

nah, the watch tool is more manly

mmm another tool to add to the armoury.....

A sharp craft knife is the thing for me. Then slice very carefully.

Macheti. Thats a real mans tool for removing serving. However the chance of removing all the strands of the string from the bow at the same time is very high.

Tried that twice this year..... and ended up having to make two nice new strings

A 10A Scalpel blade usually does the trick - bit more subtle than a craft knife

I supose an Angle Grinder is out of the question?

Or maybe a Chain Saw

My personal favourite is a broadsword..... I also find that I win competitions if I carry it on my belt.......
