Just read this whole thread, lots of info. I've been wanting a USB scope but I didn't find the info I'm looking for so I have to ask.
I want to get an image of the scratch marks on the cutting edge of the razor left by the finishing stone to compare them to see which stone has the finest grit. Can a low priced scope (around $50) do this?
I have 9 translucent hard arks I want to compare and about 7 slate floor and roof tiles I've been using as hones.
My skin is too sensitive to tell me how fine the edge "feels" let alone to allow me to get a full shave with a straight razor. I know I'm getting a good edge from the shaving I can do and I always get a HHT 4.5 or HHT 5 before I shave with one of my razors.
If anyone can get an image of a razors edge that shows a clear scratch pattern please post it and tell what type of scope you used.
Also I think this thread needs more photos. If you can take photos with your scopes then share them here, before and after, that kind of thing.
Thanks in advance and Good Shaving.
