 Re: Reed clipper with V12 tip shape?
Author: Koo Young Chung

I don't make reeds from cane,but I trim reeds sometimes.

I use a completey different tool.
As a violin maker I happen to have gouge which has a very similar curve to the reed's tip shape.

It is called 'block gouge' and has a bevel inside unlike regular gouges.
(This tool relatively cheap.)
I know this not for everyone.You have to know how to grind and sharpen etc.

But once you learn(many months of practing) how to use this tool,it'll be very easy to use for precise cutting.

Anyone needs more info,please send me an email.
