Rieger Oboe Reed Tip Cutter

This tool saves time and replaces the knife, ruler, and cutting block for clipping the tip when making reed blanks. An adjustable bed holds the reed at exactly the length desired for your reed blanks. It clips the reed cleanly and accurately with much ease. It can also easily clip small amounts during the reed scraping process. Because of the design of the blade, one side of the reed is clipped slightly shorter than the other side for ease in tonguing. It can also be set up to clip EH reeds if the EH reed is put over an old oboe staple with the cork removed.
