Use your teeth.

lol..

Really though, Get the saunders.
I've used some of the less expensive brands and they don't work very well at all for removal. Not to mention the rough grind that leaves marks on the nock.

I fought with some brass nocks for an hour one day then just drove to the gun/archery shop like a beat dog and they took it off no charge.

All you have to do is put the tip of a butter knife in the split of the nock set and twist it.It will open right up.

I agree too that Nocking pliers are the way to go. Easy to use and no damage to the string!

Bob, I've removed alot of nocks this way over the years, when reserving strings for folks!

Then, showed them how to tie on their own, usually their sold!  :bigsmyl:
