Hello from Slovakia

#1 Post by marek » Sat Jan 08, 2022 6:36 pm

Hello together,
my name is Marek and currently gathering informations for buying my first microscope. I want to obtain stereo microscope, mainly for observation
knife edges in high magnification- approx. 100-300x. My hobby is sharpening knives, very often high end knives and I want to improve my work by seeing,
how actually knife edge looks in detail. But I want to observe other objects as well, for example precise mechanics parts, or insects.

Hi Marek,

welcome to the forum!

If you are interested in sharpening of knives in combination with microscopy, you might be interested in an excellent document on this topic by Rudolf Krönung:

http://www.mikroskopie-bonn.de/_downloa ... aerfen.pdf

Unfortunately the document is in German. Just for fun I tried to translate it into Slovak, using DeepL. Here is a screenshot of the translated page 20. Does the translation make sense?
