Err I think that the Local 627 cut is actually for Saxophone reeds? (I use these Local 627 reeds on Alto Sax and they really are quite consistently wonderful)

The description that is specific to the GD cut of reeds is:

"GD reeds are made from a cane with a classic French Cut. they are made with a thicker blank and a larger diameter material than the standard clarinet reeds. This material are normally used in the manufacture of Alto saxophone reeds. This give a much deeper sound. They are the first Gonzalez reeds with a Filed Cut.
The reed has a longer scraping area and more wood in the heel, therefore is a more vibrant and lasting reed."

Which tells me that it's a thick blank reed, probably some Morre style cut (is that what it's called?), so something SIMILAR to the FOF style, but I hate to make generalisations (especially given that the FOF cut already exists, it wouldn't make sense to make another cut of reed with the same tonal profile)

Edit to make it clearer that I use the Local 627 reeds on Alto Sax, not clarinet.
