Abrégé

A sharpening machine generally includes a grinding wheel having a perimeter that is rotatable about a first axis. The sharpening machine includes an adjustment device adapted to be coupled to a structure of the sharpening machine. A shaft, mounted to the adjustment device, defines a second axis that is generally parallel to the first axis when the adjustment device is coupled to the structure and is movable along a predetermined feed axis toward the grinding wheel. A carousel is rotatably connected to the shaft of the adjustment device. A contouring tool having a counter surface is rotatably connected to the carousel. Movement of the shaft of the adjustment device along the feed axis is configured to translate the carousel and move the contouring tool into and out of engagement with the grinding wheel to facilitate dressing of the perimeter of the grinding wheel to a grinding wheel contour.

An ice skate blade for an ice skate comprising a length adapted to be attached to the ice skate and an ice engaging surface adapted to contact ice, a profile extending along at least a portion of the length, the profile having a width between a first side edge and a second side edge. At least one of the side edges ends at a bottom end at the ice engaging surface, a vee is defined by one of the side edges and a flat meeting at the bottom end, wherein a first acute edge angle is formed between the one of the side edges and the flat, and a flat angle is formed between the one of the side edges and a bottom, wherein the bottom has a distance which extends from the flat to either a second flat or a second one of the side edges.
