    There are "two" different abrasions there,, I would say the micro bevel is not from stone, man-made nor natural.

    Maybe the micro bevel, if that is what it is, was "peeled" , say with a Tungsten cutter ?

    Looks like they didn't hone it all the way to the black magic marker.

    Looks like a somewhat corroded edge....looks like the steel has been degraded??

    Looks like an over Photoshop'd image of an edge. Excess contrast and brightness.

    I agree about the bevel not being completely set, but I've also seen edges like that when there is a burr on one side. It is hard to tell unless you have the razor in hand. Lighting can add effects that aren't really there or hide things that are.

    the edge line is not even, it does not seem to be stropped to me but could be wrong. In any case the bevels do not seem to meet at the edge.
