Wow! That looks impressive!Here's a closeup of a 128,000 grit edge seen at 500x magnification. A 10,000 grit edge at this magnification would look like a freshly plowed field. Using CBN spray and nanocloth strop for the final finish

^^ nice one Joe. Is it your usual 18dps with a 20dps micro?
With it 18/20° isn't your micro not so micro lol..i typically go +4° minimum for my micros otherwise it's quitenoticeable.Yes it is. Works great for my needs.

You do those exclusively on the Sharpmaker?
Only to touch up the blade after it has been reprofiled below 20dps. Xm-18's aren't designed to be this acute it's just my preference.
