Question about (dip/dent/chip) After sharpening

[germ1]

I'm a novice at sharpening, and I've never had this happen before. I assume it can be fixed by just going back to the first stone (coarse) and running it on that till the dent/dip/chip is out? Also is 1095 CV too soft for diamond plates? The rest of my blade is fine, it's just the tip that got chewed up.
It's really grainy even after trying to refine it on ceramic and a strop with compound. The pictures aren't that great, it's with a cell phone and I couldn't really get any close ups without it going blurry. The only thing I have to sharpen on is my Worksharp field sharpener, I don't have a home set up. I can get good results with it usually though, all my blades are razor sharp.(paper cutting/hair popping)

There's a dent and a chip at the very tip, just can't see them very well in these photos.

I think I see the 'dent'. But to me, it looks like the bigger issue is the coarser (maybe factory?) scratch pattern near the tip wasn't fully replaced by subsequent sharpening stages, which didn't reach all the way to the cutting edge. The finer scratch pattern from your sharpening can be seen near the shoulder of the bevel, above the coarser scratches nearer to the edge. This is very common, and the tips always need extra attention, because the edge angles are wider there. It's very easy to miss making contact near the edge, in the portions close to the tip of the blade. Should be relatively easy for your stones (or diamond plates) to clean up, but the bigger issue is making sure to lift the handle end of the knife a little higher on the stroke, when working near the tip of the blade. Otherwise, a portion of the edge bevel closest to the apex won't make contact on the hone, and the grinding/refining all shows up in the upper portion of the bevel.

Fixed it, thanks for the reply David.

Thanks for the input, I actually went back and fixed it before seeing your post though. It's hard to see in the pictures, but there is a dip and a tiny chip near the very tip. The dent was worked out, but the chip is still there. Although it is much smaller than before, I just don't want to spend anymore time on it. I'm working with a field sharperner that has very small plates on it, so it's a pain. but it's much better than before.
The bevel isn't even straight on this knife, came that way from the factory. If you look at it, it goes from wide to thin in several places, like the belly for one.
