Definitely, the American scrape is much more responsive (when you consider that new bies tend to bite a lot and tense up too much.) but projection is a challenge, unless the reed is superbly made of course (not discussing personal variables here.)

I myself play the Dutch scrape, but for emergency purposes, since i do not play the American scrape, www.kge-reeds.com works the best for me. And according to my knowledge even busy professionals like Simon Eames (principal Malaysian Philharmonic, late Anthony Camden's student) plays them, in fact, the whole oboe section plays on his reeds.
