    I got one at Radio Shack for about $10 if I remember right. I don't remember the magnification on it at the moment but it has a handy built in light and will show how well (or not) your bevels and edges are.

    I've got the one from Radioshack, I can never seem to get it in focus.

    I'm glad this thread came up as I was looking for something new.

    I'm happy with 8x during honing but I like a large lens diameter, 36mm. I'm not comfortable with the small field of view in the 20mm ones.
