There is a special pair of pliers one can use to remove knuckles. They look
like big cutters and they work just fine. The way their blades work is that
they litterally pull the knuckle out ot it's groove. Fast and easy.

    Hi! Mary,  I recall a tech demonstrating a procedure for removing
knuckles at a tech session some years ago.

  I saw that demonstration too Carl. One of the reasons I am leary of going
to Chicago...grin. All that Blood... shhheshh.. Poor fellow who was
voluntered  wont be knocking on anyones doors again soon me thinks.
    He sliced through the buckskin and felt with a razor blade, peeled the
felt and buckskin off and with a sharp small side cutting pliers cut the
remaining wood at two or three places and split it out of the slot.  I
haven't actually done this but it looked easy.  Hope that works for you.
Practice on some old knuckles.

  Shhesshhh.. and I thought I was gross... practice on some old knuckles
