Otherwise, a nice even bevel along the entire blade with the exception of a few millimeters just before the toe. Not sure if this was self inflicted or not, but it sort of looks like there is a dip in the edge where there is no bevel, and then up again into a nice bevel the rest of the way to the toe. So would I focus on that area by occasionally applying some additional pressure with a finger over that spot on the blade? How do I give attention to one area?
