 Re: Slipping the blades: US Left-Handed reedmakers

Thanks for this. I find exactly the same with a 'European' reed. So probably my 'scissors' idea applies: the thread pulls the blade in the direction it is wound, yet the tip is rotated outwards in the opposite direction – when one merely'crosses' the blades carelessly.

Therefore it appears that the action of slipping the tail of the blade deliberately actually *minimises* the shift, because it forces the edges back into one another! Your experience of nudging the cane back supports this.

A 'crossed' reed twists increasingly. A 'slipped' one lies with its edges closely tucked in, under control. Perhaps we all agree?
