I have seen and read about using various implements to break apart Pu-Erh for brewing but would like to hear what the preferred tool and method are from some of the pros around here. I have seen sharp metal letter openers, oyster knives, paring knives, smaller metal skewers, etc. I am brewing some Xiaguan Green Pu-Erh right now that I bought in my recent trip to NY and I thought of asking this question. I used a pair of sharp pointed scissors since here at work my only other option would be plastic silverware ;)
