    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.............
    Very cool loupes Jerry. I have the 30x non illuminated. That 20x/40x with illumination looks really interesting.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Buy the 20x - 40x. You will be glad you did. widgetsupply.com

    I don't know where you live but widget is in Oregon.

    I just checked. The 20x - 40x illuminated is on sale for $7.97

    They really work. Every member should have one.
