Scrap-ping reeds while making is often a combination of 2 things:
1. skills with the tools still in development
2. knives not sharp enough.

#2 can be contentious: like chef-cooks in 5-star restaurants, people like their knives their own ways. Because you are European, it is likely the explanations and demonstrations I put on my blog should work for you:

When it comes to tying the reed, I bought this gadget last year --- remember, I have been making great reeds (to my taste) for over 20 years --- and I find it is the most important invention ever to reduce frustration and wasted time and wasted cane:

--- it is also available from kreedo, oboe-shop.de (I think), and Rigoutat
It has even attracted attention from some American-style reed-makers, who often like the opposite of what the gadget does.
