How do you Dislodge a Clam?

I am curious about this as well.
I have always read that you basically 'cut' it out but there is a HUGE risk of injury, even death to the clam.

I believe the byssal THREADS may be cut, but if you cut the byssal GLAND then infection and death will ensue.

I've heard if you cut the Byssel threads as close to the rock as possible it should be ok. But be very careful.
