Cleaning Out Corners

[Robson Valley]

I have no idea which sorts of tools would be best for this:

Imagine three curved surfaces coming together. There's a triangular corner/pit/cavity place, at the intersection, which I'd like to be able to clean out. No amount of digging with a dental pick does the job without leaving about as much mess as I started with.
I don't think that it has to be perfect just far less noticeable.
Suggestions please.
Thanks

try left and right short bent skews that is what they are made for cleaning out inside corners

You cannot be clean with "digging" into wood....

Don gives good advice - I like my bent skews just for this purpose.

Is this a deep cut or shallow?
There have been lots of threads on "cleaning fuzzies" or something similar but I'm not sure that they are the same as what you are asking.

I have a Moor chip knife = the blade is too fat.
I have a Flexcut KD14 (?) = the tip is blunt.
I have a Pfeil Brienze, the blade is too big.

These are skinny holes. Maybe some one-off X-acto blade? I could hone it up for a one-shot deal. 16+ of these holes to deal with.

I will never do a detailed carving again.

RV:
I use a Bütz detail knife for this sort of thing. If you don't have one, a standard X-acto blade might work if you used a dremel cut-off wheel to cut the back of the blade down to a smaller (narrower) size.

Try a scorp. Lee Valley sells a real nice set.

Jam three soft balloons together (aka body parts), look down into the junction.
From now on, I'm going to have to rethink the trap that this arrangement makes.
If the joints were not so acute, not as difficult.
I'm not digging very hard. One possible solution might be a 1/16 drill bit.

Woodburing needle? sorry, 'Pyrography Pen'

I'm looking into getting one made up.
Knife handle, 2" bent shank and a blade like an arrowhead, sharp on both edges..

I've carved a lot of grape bunches, and had the same issue you have. If you really want to cut out the fuzz, try a hook curved blade on your X-Acto. A better solution for smaller areas is to grind a triangular punch out of a nail and just punch the fuzz down into the intersection. You'll never see it. Mike
