What Does a Razor Sharp Edge Look Like ULTRA Close up?

What does a razor sharp edge look like up close? In this video I show what a Sharp edge looks like compared to a dull edge. I wanted to take the sharpening out of the comparison, so I just used some of the sharpest factory blades I know of, and compared them before and after a lot of cardboard cutting. Its interesting what simple cardboard does to a knife edge over time! Im new to macro videography and macro photography so in time I hope to get better at lighting so we can see the edge even clearer.
