Ichabod, thanks for the kind words. Those pictures, which I take the blame for, don't really show the edge too well. My wife could've done a LOT better.
The edge could be both smoother and more uniform, but it's truly scary sharp. I'm sure you'll make your AR look a lot better than mine ever will. I enjoy sharpening a good blade, but I'm not patient enough to put a really good polish on one. I wish I had that kind of patience.
If I ever get that far north, I'd love to visit you and your wife. Sharpening Striders is a pretty good reason/excuse...
