Well, since I haven't actually started reed making yet, I can only really comment on the adjusting I've done.
Most reeds I get seem to open, maybe a little to hard. At first, I was doing like you did, taking it only off the tip to make it easier to play. Sometimes I would just scrape down the whole reed a tad (with the reed rush I had on hand for my clarinet reeds; that probably wasn't great either).
Now, after some research, I've found some of the proper ways of adjusting reeds.
