I'm a fan of Myerchin Marlinspikes for sailing. Haven't needed one for shibari yet but they are a nice tool to have when working with ropes. The blunter tip won't damage your rope like screwdrivers or other tools.
Another solution for undoing a jammed or tight knot is two parts. Try twisting the line along the direction of the lay and push. This will tighten up the line in that section and sometimes allow the line to get by. Work from the bitter end first but sometimes you have to work both sides of a knot a few times. Some knots untie easily once folded in half breaking their back. Bowlines in particular but not sure how to explain that without showing it.
Sure, if you don’t have a tool. If you have to do this regularly, get a marlinspike or a fid .
