Actually, I gave your image a go in Knockout and it was not too successful due to the lack of edge definition. I then gave the Edge eraser a go and found I could get quite good results quite quickly. The image below took about 5, or 6 minutes.

Re: select a jewellery piece from a shaded bg
I'd use Mask Pro here. It has tools for different kinds of edges. It'll definitely be quicker than lasso or, even KnockOut.
Here's a review with examples and a tutorial on cutting out with transparencies:

And they have video tutorials on their site, too.
