Bridge/Fingerboard Removal Knife

I agree with other reviewers who had their spatulas fold in use. Light, careful use in removing a fingerboard under heat bent mine pretty seriously. It is thin, however, and will slip into some tight spaces.

Works very well. For those of you having issues with it being to flimsy well that's kind of the point. It is very thin but that's what you need. Get the glue hot enough and it slips right under.

The shape, size, and flexibility of this knife did a perfect job in removing the bridge from a 41 year old acoustic guitar without a single splinter.

Handy size, shape, and flexible enough to protect surrounding surfaces.

This is not a "heavy duty" tool and should only be used for gentle work. Use the seam separator or other knife for tougher joints. The first one I got, I used a bit aggressively and kinked the end. I was able to hammer it mostly flat again so it still works. Its nice to use once you get a fingerboard free at one end and start working it off. Less likely to cut into the wood than an actual sharpened knife.

Not the best tool for this. The spatula is a better choice.

I have loved these knives for years, but this one is too flimsy for the task. The metal collapsed like an accordion with light pressure. It can be used for a nice flexible putty knife though.

Good knife for acoustic guitar (and ukulele!) bridge removal. Yes, it's thin - that's the idea. You can slip it into tight joints easily. I don't think I'd use it for fingerboard removal - it's a bit too fragile for that. (See the Stew Mac razor knife for that).

A very useful tool.
