    Yup. Here is how I currently do things

    Ignore the two bevel honing link on the bottom. I haven't updated it in a long time.

    I don't use pastes or powders to hone with , only stones. I do like seeing the progression of the edge under a microscope though. The opening post was a pleasure to read, thanks Tim.

    What brand of scope took these images?

    Hirlau,

    I'm glad you enjoyed the photos.I can do better, but it takes a lot more time to get the light and everything set right. The photos were shot with a Nikon D7000 mounted to an Olympus MG metallurgical microscope.
