Looking for something on google, I came across the following statement which is on a picture framer's website:
There are several different frame-back fixing methods, and several different tools to remove some of them without causing damage. Most framers keep only the special tools to remove the type of fittings they use regularly
Really? I must try marketing my universal unframing tool to framers.

Admittedly my favourite way of using them is to cut through the mitres, particularly if the board has been held on with staples...
