    I agree with you about the lower magnification. I have a 100X - 250X bench scope, a 60X USB unit for my laptop and several loupes.

    The one that is most convenient for me while honing is a combination 20X - 40X illuminated loupe that I got from widgetsupply.com. Decent price too. You can definitely see a wire edge and any of those little feathers that peel off the edge while honing with the 40X.

    Here is a photo of two of my loupes.............
