You need at least 200x just to see the micro bevel we're talking about here. Taking good pictures is difficult due to the reflections and depth of field at the high magnification.

You can see some edge close-ups here:

The page is a comparison of stones and the finish they give to the cutting edge. There aren't any double bevel photos here either.

I'm doing some experimenting with the compound step. I'll be posting photos that show the Chromium Oxide finish on the double bevels someday...

I'll be bringing my microscope to Lynn's "shindig" for those who want to play.
