As someone suggested put a few drops of Kroil so that it wicks into the threads 
and let it set for 24 hours and the try to unscrew the crank. Beyond that find 
a good service person. Avoid getting Kroil on your skin.

Good Luck

Yes is left handed, it goes in the same screw as the original handle. So as I 
said, "I tried to unscrew the cog turning clockwise".

>From Rex o fader instruction:
""A. FITTING ON THE CAMERA
1. Unscrew the camera rewind handle by turning it clockwise.
2. Fit the Rexofader with its hole on the axis from which you just screwed the 
rewind handle.
3. Screw down and lock screw (1).
4. Set the special rewind handle (2), supplied with the accessory, in place. 
Screw it on firmly, turning anti-clockwise"

If you turn the cog anti-clockwise you just wind up the motor

As I remember the Rex o fader is left hand thread. Try turning it the other way.

penetrating oil didn't work (I used Wd-40), I think I applied a considerable 
torque (don't ask me how much)... I wonder how much the service can charge for 
having the job done...
thanks anyway

Thanks Scott
I'm going to have a try tonight with some unlocking oil.

But the cog screw that's is stuck is a male one, which goes in the rewind 
spindle screw that's a female one, so heating the cog up should widen it making 
it stuck even more...

And I can't heat up the spindle screw which is unaccessible without dismantling 
the camera... (and both of these things scare me a bit...)

Put a drop of kroil or some other penetrating oil on the cog.  Maybe
heat it up a little with a soldering iron.
