Chances are big that "bone glue" has been used for your holders, if they have some age. You can unglue them by warming with a hair dryer.

Denatured alcohol will also debond hide glues (presumably the same as bone glue).

A few seconds in a microwave will do it if the metal bits can be taken off first.
