Ha, good Mack stories, John. What a character!

I certainly agree that the knife, gouge, cane, shape, staple, and so many other things are all factors. But I consider knife technique the most important because it allows us to quickly (and cheaply) adapt. Gougers are fickle. They get dull and they fall out of adjustment. Every cane crop is different and every piece of cane within a crop is different. But in good hands, it's that trusty ol' knife that adapts to everything else, so that we can keep turning out good reeds despite so many variables and so few constants.

Cheers,
Drew
