Re: Cordier reed trimmer?

Many years ago as an undergrad I had the best trimmer . It did not round the corners of the reed but gave a perfect cut that matched the original. I have not seen a reed trimmer like it in many years.

It was made of a black metal surrounding frame, a dark blue metal blade and a silver lever that was attacked to a somewhat flat sided silver metal bar that when the lever was turned the bar moved the blade. There was a platform for the butt of the reed but no clamp. You held the reed in place with a thumb.

I do not remember the name of the maker but perhaps someone will reconize the trimmer form my description and who made it. I do remember it ran around 5 bucks.

I do not care for the shape of the corners either after a cordier trim.
