Yeah, looking at these reeds what I see is a possible problem in the proportions. The back (windows area) looks quite long, the tip looks rather short, and the heart appears not as clearly defined as I would expect. It's difficult to determine where the back leaves off and the heart begins.

Here is one of my favorite sites about reedmaking (and one of my favorite reedmakers, too): https://sites.google.com/site/johnsondoublereeds/reed-making-advice (Look down at the bottom for links to the actual instruction pages.)

Since I mostly buy reeds (decided not to make my own after several tries), I especially like Grace's piece on adjusting and troubleshooting: https://sites.google.com/site/johnsondoublereeds/reed-making-advice/4-tone-adjustments
