Default Tips for de-charring a bowl?

Hi guys,

I've got a solid 2mm+ of char on the inside of my briar pipe's bowl and counting and, while I'm enjoying the cool smoking performance, I'm beginning to notice the real estate shrinkage as I can't pack very much tobacco in anymore. I'd like to remove the bulk of the char layer but, of course, don't want to lose the seasoning. Can anyone recommend a good technique or tool to help me *carefully* open up the pipe?

Dremel?
