 Re: NOS Olivieri reeds - how to make them better?

You've discovered what I've been preaching for years on this forum -- that especially with reeds for the larger instruments (which tend to warp 'convexly" on the bottom), one should purchase such reeds about a half-strength harder than the desired final playing strength, to allow for scraping of the bottom during the break-in process. I only use a reed knife for this, no sandpaper. You've got it right!
