See, I bought a Cordier reed trimer a month ago. I think it's either the
blade or me. It's just that I can't trim the correct curature, you know the
tip of the reedy. No matter how careful I just can't cut the same curvature,
the left side's always straight! No curve at all!

Download file if you don't know what I mean, I drew a picture.

Do you know which trimmers are easier to use? I use Vandoren reeds. Is the
Vandoren reed trimmer good?
