Shaving Edge
I wanted some help with pictures of my razors edge. In the first picture I believe I can see the minute teeth. Can you ?
This edge shaves well and comfortable. In the first picture I believe I can see the minute teeth. Can you? There will be a second picture. For comparing edges but I would like to know what minute teeth look like. They are suppose to be small saw like teeth that do the cutting. Thanks for your help.

Thanked: 3795Those teeth don't really exist. They were the product of speculation and were/are a simple means to try to understand what is going on at the edge.
The reflection near the edge is different from that of the rest of the bevel, which indicates that your edge is not yet optimal.

Also if you are looking at the top picture on the left side of the blade that silver reflection of light is a light trick from the polar riser thing on the microscope that is suppose to take the light reflection out but doesn't always work out

Thanked: 3222I don't know that I would want to use a polarizer to view an edge through. I want to see reflections from the edge to see if my bevel is really set. Just a thought.
