Genuine Honda ball joint separator cost over $100 for the tool. I have one and use it all the time.

Why don't you try vibrating (lightly) the knuckle with a hammer or impact wrench/air gun?

You know what they do at the dealship when trying to separate the ball joint..... They get a sledge hammer and swing the living hell out of the control arm. Some pop off easy, some just refuse to come off.
