FYI, a coping saw blade with the end snipped off is the tool of choice used by most locksmiths. This tip only cost me $40 while I watched the locksmith remove a broken key in about 10 seconds. :-O A

Scroll saw blades work even better. :) BTW - If you ever try to remove a broken ignition key on a car where the lock still turns, do it on the locksmith's parking lot. That way, if you move the piece
