The idea, the principle has been in the air since 2000, and since then I've seen dozens of similar makeshifts good for personal use only, and even so with many reservations.
What made that principle a method and those home-made devices an instrument was the EOU highly standardized test media, technical & firmware solution for reproducible results, and the internationally recognized BESS scale tied to a standard DE razor as a unit and backed by SEM data.
Mike's instruments are capable of telling edge radius in nm, and enable us exchange sharpness data over the globe.
Mike B. has spent best years of his life to have this giant task completed for us to enjoy.
Refusing fruits of his labor is beyond my comprehension.
ONLY Mike's instruments and the BESS scale have made possible the "edge stability" SET project to be carried out in collaboration between the USA, Australia and UK.
