    The last time I talked to Bill about honing, he was using tape to create double bevels, but he didn't discuss anything similar to the OP.

    Moving to finer and finer stones, the bevel end sits closer to the surface. The particles are smaller and the end gets refined.
    I would think that this effect would happen to some degree without the blade deflection idea you put forth, maybe you exaggerated it with blade flexing. I would not call it a micro bevel, but one that is slightly convexed from uneven pressure.
