    Double reed players are the ones to talk to. Supposedly they are always trimming and cutting these things. Ask Forrests in Berkeley. They have all that stuff in the display case, and they ship. They are also sax players.

      reed knives for saxophones have two main requirements. The blade must be entirely flat and straight, and very sharp. Anything else will hinder you more than help you
