Tooling/ beveling question

[bigsig11010]

Just got my new set of steep angle smooth bevlers from Barry King. When  I compare to recent project with my textured craft tool bevel I can barely notice the bevels with the new steep angle. Am I using the steep angle bevel wrong or is this how it's supposed to look?

That is how they are supposed to look. They are designed mainly for floral carving and especially beveling tight stem work with close lines. You can bevel a line without mashing down the adjacent cutc. Also to bevel a crossing element without mashing and leaving a large halo on the part below lie a flower over a stem or leaf. I liked steep bevelers for lightly breaking over the outside of a cut line for beadlines too. just lightly break that square edge.
