Did you check to see if there was a pin on the ferrule going into the bamboo? Remove by gently punching it so that it is just under the metal (NOT all the way through to the other side). Remove the ferrule then pull the pin out.
If no pin, maybe try the hairdryer next.
I've had to use direct heat before but be careful!
