Today I decided to try my hand at some macro and used the profile of the serrated blade of a steak knife. It's quite remarkable to see the detail of the sharpness of the individual teeth of the blade.

Olympus E-5, Zuiko Digital 70-300mm f/4-5.6 zoom, @300mm, f/11, with 25mm extension tube, FL-50R flash, Lastolite EZYBOX mini softbox.

I think I would have difficulty in guessing this as a steak knife. It looks more like a saw. It's amazing when objects are photographed in macro, without something to give a sense of scale, how different they look.

Sharp focus on the central blades to concentrate the eye, but I would be inclined to clone out the top right orangey part of the table/board as it is distracting."
