    Try the tape, but don't obsess over bevel evenness. I've got some fantastic shavers with slightly warped spines (and therefore uneven bevels). Use a Sharpie on the edge and see if you're removing it all (at the *edge*) when you hone. If so, you're hitting the whole edge, and you should be good to go -- uneven bevel or not.

    Thanks a lot.
    Actually I am not obsessing over the evenness but at some parts of the spine I can see under the loupe that the bevel is sooo narrow that looks like there is no bevel to the naked eye. sadly the edge probing results are worse along those parts of the edge as well.
