Magical Beam of Light.

I've noticed that my best edges have a beam of light along the edge, this seems to ensure that the blade is killer.

Shame I cant achieve it every time.

I'm wondering, if I have a broken beam of light, does that mean it needs more finishing?


The first picture is a Not a Replica honed by Hart Steel with an Escher (lovely shaver)

The second is my Custom Hart Steel , I finished it with Jnats and its by far the keenest edge ive ever known.

The third is my Custom Max Sprecher, same finish on my Jnats but a bit gappy in the beam of light department.

The scatch pattern on the first looks harsh compared to the others
Is the reflection a microbevel??
The last 2 blades have a nice Finnish to them

The first was finished with an Escher by a pro, it could be a micro bevel, I dunno how they did it. They did put a whole new bevel on there for me, the other 2 are finished by me with Jnats
