Get an index card, or a piece of card stock (did you get a shirt for Christmas, get that cardboard in the collar or backing). Cut it once, with a pair of scissors. Get a REALLY strong magnifying lens, and look at 2 edges, the one you cut and the one that was already cut. The one you cut will show a slight mashing down of the edge of the paper, and the nature of the cut will be different. I think if you study that, then look at the edges on your card, and other T206s, you'd get a feel for what a natural edge looks like....

I could type all day, and probably would get about as far describing the difference as I would if I tried to explain what beer tastes like... ya just gotta try it yourself!
