I have several Box Elder burls with tight bark, Dried to 10% moisture. How to remove with out damage to wood.

Pressure washer is the best method I have heard of. The water won't hurt the wood as it doesn't really soak in. I don't know of any other way. If the wood is full of little spikes into the bark, well good luck...

Thank you Reed. Just what I was thinking, but unsure of.
