Goodwinds - the less sharp a knife gets (I hate to even think 'dull') the less it cuts and the more it crushes the fibers under the blade. A softer cane will not cut more easily than a hard cane as the knife becomes less sharp but it will crush more easily. If your knife is not cutting a clean chip then it is crushing lower fibers as it tears the top ones away from the remaining ones.

Do I sound like a religious zealot on this topic? Yep!
