    I will follow along with your recommendations and do a bevel reset, even though I am confident that the bevel was set per your method of looking down on the edge at 20x under a bright light and seen no reflection (no pics of that). But what I think you might be seeing is a lack of focus from the scope and my phone, because with how the scope is setup I could not get the plane of the bevel and the edge to focus at the same time, this I can tell you that there is a possibility that what you are seeing is unfocused refracted light not the edge itself, because when I took these photos it was for me to compare each grit and not to examine the edge itself. The pics were only posted because someone asked and they were all I had. If I knew this was the direction that this thread would go I would have had focused pics of the edge. And it was a beast to get the phone to get a good focused pic looking through the eye piece since the slightest move even to touch the screen to take the pic resulted in loss of image and focus.

    So though I disagree because you can only examine the only recorded visual evidence I have, I am willing to give the benefit of the doubt and say I'm very possibly wrong and willing to try again, because of my lack of experience and you all have many many more razors under your belt than I do (I have only done handful of sessions). Thus respectfully disagreeing but willing to go in there and try again and possibly (most likely) prove myself wrong.

    Now as to the deep stria part. I am in full agreement and need to fix that.

    A fool flaunts what wisdom he thinks he has, while a wise man will show that he is wise silently.
