 Re: Long term safety of using plastic reeds?

I assume after very long periods of time the plastic reeds can become brittle. When I was in high school, my freshman year was the first year the school restarted the band program, which had been shut down many years prior, however all the old supplies were still in storage. One of the alto sax players found a very old plastic reed in the storage cabinets, and started playing on it for a couple months, before the reed snapped in half across the point where his lower jaw met the reed on the mouthpiece.
