The most common method is to use a peeling spud and drawknife combination. A peeling spud is a tool that removes the bulk of the bark by prying it off. This works best on non-winter cut wood. In log building a peeling spud is used to knock off the majority of a log's bark.
Also to know is, why do you have to debark logs?
To debark or not to debark; and how to do it. The wood in living trees has a high moisture content because of the transport of sugars and nutrients in the sap. The bark plays an important role in this process as it is impervious and thus prevents the tree from drying out and rain from washing away the sugars.

Correspondingly, what is the easiest way to remove bark from a branch?
Remove all the bark from the branch using a paint scraper. Sand the branch to remove any rough spots using 100 grit sandpaper. Then, using 150 grit sandpaper, sand the entire branch. Wipe down the entire branch with a dry paper towel to remove all the dust and debris.
How Girdling Works. Because girdling the tree removes its outer bark and disrupts the phloem, the sap, or food, produced by the leaves cannot reach other parts of the tree. The tree slowly dies due to lack of nutrients and moisture. It may take up to one year for the tree to die.
