Honestly, I have no idea. I've played with 46.5mm, 46mm, and 47, and I've gone back to 47mm, just because people who buy my reeds tend to want reeds "longer" (but they want their reeds sharper).

I think you just have to play around with the staple length and see which fits your oboe best. Different oboes have different pitch tendancies. The older oboes have sharper pitch level. New Royals seem to be sharper. Laubins feel a bit flatter to me. etc. etc. etc.

When I use RDG 2 shape, I use shorter staples because the wider shape makes it sag a bit. With a the narrower a shape, I'll use a longer staple.
