Well, aerdvaark's photo is 100X and that looks like what I see with my 100X scope. If the bevel is .5 MM it should look like 50 MM at 100X.

I was going to mention that earlier but I forgot. My scope is at about 240x and even a small bevel pretty much fills half of the whole screen. You can check your actual magnification by taking an image of something of known size or distance like the graduations on a ruler (1/64" or 0.5mm is probably a good graduation to use, depending on if you have metric or inch available).
After taking the image, blow it up to fullscreen on your monitor then measure the distance between graduations on your screen with a ruler. Divide the screen measurement by the actual measurement to get your actual magnification.
He's simply in love with it. I keep on hand only the best of the best of select jnats. I have a box full of them as I'm sure most of you do. :beer1:
These are my ozuku asagi edges on a Sheffield wedge. These are some random points from both sides of the blade. I think they are fine enough to shave from.
Edit:
Sorry I misread the above post. You said okudo asagi not ozuku asagi.

That is an excellent looking edge! And it shaves well. Win - win!!:rock:
I've been examining a lot of edges lately, at least what I have access to and it really does not get any better than that.
And your technique is coming right along also, nice job!!
oh Wow sbogill, i dont know anything about honing, but those edges look splendid. considering the magnification. wow

Wow, thats a nice looking,straight edge and the bevel is also clean. I hope when i get a chance to get back on the stones i can find the same look on my finished razors.
Good job!
