Did you use it as a tip reflector or did you roll it up and put it in the base of the blade as a focuser?

I used it as at the base. I intend to try it as a tip next.

I noticed when pulling it out that the light came through scratches so it would probably work as a decent tip if you scratched off some of the material.

I just tried something like what you did. I used a piece of foil tape on computer paper. The paper is to make sure it tries to unroll itself in the blade so it stays more secure, and also it keeps if from crinkling. I must say it worked very well. Now my blade looks brighter.

I will get them later... when it is darker so i can do a before and after.

Alright. Here's the comparison. Hard to tell, but one easy way, is that the bright yellow core at the bottom extends further in the bottom pic.
