Yes indeed, Mary. It's critical that the blend be a smooth surface no matter what the slope. A thin spot creates a hinge and the heavier mass beyond that just flaps on that hinge rather than vibrating complexly.
You can also wrap a strip of fine sandpaper (1000 or 1200 grit) around a staple cork and use it as a file to smooth and thin the tip, especially the corners...
