I love this for ripping they stay sharp a long time and the curve tip is great to pick up stitches.

Havel surgical steel seam ripper. Have had it for several years and have only changed the blade three time. Be careful as it is sharp, but it does get under the stitches really easy.

From Don-isewman--I'm just like all quilter. There are times, I've had to rip out, thru out, some of my sewing project's off and on. My sister/law, got this wooden heart item for me she bought at a yard sale, and on this wooden heart. it has a wooden cut out pair of scissors, and next to it has this saying---"As ye sew so shall ye rip" quilte true isn't it.
