They're also far softer and more flexible than the reeds we use for modern oboes as Baroque oboe reeds need to be pressure sensitive to allow the player to jump 8ves easily (both up and down) by overblowing and increasing/decreasing lip pressure as they have no 8ve keys on Baroque oboes to do the work for them.

The opinions I express are my own.
