But you can always try in a "sandbox". And while there are probably a thousand clever ways to do it on the command line (probably even with find alone), if it's a one-off thing, I'd just mark all files with 't' in emacs' dired, unmark ('u') the ones to keep, and then remove the rest ('D'). I'm sure any other file manager could be used instead of dired.
