Karl said: "...But working with, for one example, Aria reeds, which seem to be consistently much thinner-tipped than most other makes, it seems as though any material taken from the tip area is damaging, and getting past the tip area without sanding it seems easier from the other direction using other tools."

When using the ATG tool, with its tapered/rolled edge, I've found that angling into the side of the reed (diagonally at around 45 deg) but coming into the reed at a point further along the vamp (just below the tip) seems to allow me to reduce the reed's rails a bit without any effect on the tip. This is has produced nice results for me thus far.

I guess one could certainly reach for a different tool at this point, but inasmuch as the ATG tool is invariably in my hand when I'm working on a reed (along with my vixen flat file for the backside of a reed) this has been a convenient way to achieve what you seem to be describing.

This assumes we're referring to what fernie121 refers to as the "C" section. [otherwise, nevermind! ;-) ]
