I've used a new shaving razor with a little pressure, but it depends on the type of material.

I actually used a good sharp kitchen knife. Then I put a hard surface in between the pants (this helped a lot). I used an old textbook. And this Is how it turned out.

Take tongs that have the jagged edge and pull away from the jeans really fast. This creates a cute fringe as well :)

A cheese grater can add texture to denim. Just don't use a grater you want to use for food because it will get dull.
