This is a Kershaw Skyline. I’m happy with my first try but there’s room for improvement. The most interesting thing is the different images from the Veho 400x microscope of this knife edge (not the exact same spot). I just changed the angle of the microscope and lighting to get strikingly different images.

Did you take the pictures with the knife flat on the ground/table/microscope base and the microscope straight on top of the blade?
Not exactly.
I have the microscope stand below which has a fine adjustment knob that allows me to more easily focus. I’ve been experimenting with putting a piece of playdoh on the base of the stand and squishing the back of the blade into it in such a way that the blade edge is up and at a slight angle to the microscope.
I adjust the angle of the blade and the intensity of the light to get different images. I haven’t yet determined how to quickly get the best image – I just have to keep adjusting things until I get what I want.
