Re: Reed Knife

I never bothered with reed knives or rushes. Razors and 2 grits of wet/dry sandpaper have always work very well for me. Mostly use razors to clip the tip,or to make tenor reeds from alto, or alto reeds to clarinet. some 120 sandpaper for adjusting and 400 for a smooth finish have always worked nicely.
$20 for a reed trimmer and rushes doesnt beat $2 worth razors and paper that will last a lifetime. Plus rushes will probably need fine paper for a smooth finish anyway.
