T-blades

[Dare to Dream 1980 0]

I have the graf supra's G3 skate and i have been very dissapointed in how easily my blade chips or gets dull because it seems like ever 2-3 skates there dull or chipped badly. So i was wondering how good are the T-blades in the catagory of chipping and how much different it would be to switch to them

I would do another holder setup over t'blades.

I had t-blades for a while and I must say they were the worst holders I have ever has, just plain old P.O.S

Uh oh, I ordered T-Blades because I don't like the Pro Lites on my RBK's and the T-Blade engineering seemed very good. Reading posts like these make me worried. I think my LHS will kill me if I return them because they've been waiting 3 weeks for them to come in from Canada.

Are they really that bad??

[Guest OSTOR]

Terrible

I'd rather he be succinct than add false filler to make a story seem more readable.

What did i not like about them.... mhmhm everything?

They felt good for about a month then got shitty.

They certainly don't last as long as they avertise them for.

Tblades.. Monkeys throw shit.

A Novel by BK.

Tblade user A: Oh my god. These are the best holders since sliced bread. Ovechkin asked for my autograph the other day and I have scored more than Hue Heffner.

Tblade user B: Tblades ran over my dog, killed my parents and burnt down my village. God hates tblades and you should too.

The End.

What are you talking about? A month for a sharpening is great. Im lucky If I get 2-3 skates out of a sharpening.

[Guest OSTOR]

I got maybe 3 weeks outta the t-blades and about 2 weeks outta my one90s being on the ice every day

[kovalchuk71 212]

Then you must use some pretty dull ass steel

[Guest OSTOR]

No I just have a very good sharpener

[KYHockey3 0]

if you have a great sharpener, then why do your blades get dull so easily? i mean its pp, but t-blades seem to last longer them regular skates

[kovalchuk71 212]

Still even if you have a good sharpener, 2 weeks straight on the ice without another sharpening. Even an amazing sharpener cant keep them sharp for that long. But I agree with LC is it PP

I never said my blades get dull easily.

I also run a sweet stick along my blades about 3 times before i hit the ice

I love my t'blades and have used them for nearly three years. I generally get close to 3 months out of them before I start to notice they are becoming dull. At that point, I'll run the stone over the sides and generally get another few weeks before needing to do so again. Around 5-6 months, I trade them in for the newer model. Previously, I'd get my skates sharpened after four to five sessions.

That said, I've always considered the longevity to be a bonus. The increased turning radius is noticeable and why I've stayed with them.

I respect Ostor's opinion, since it's based upon his experience. Too often these threads are "Heard it from a friend, who heard from a friend, who heard it from another you've been messing around." I'm not suggesting everyone needs to try t'blades, because they might not be for everyone. But it's obviously difficult to know how good or bad t'blades are without ever having tried them.

If you tried them and didn't like them, now you know. If you tried them and liked them, now you know, If you've never tried them, well now you don't know.

After seeing his douchebaggery in many threads, I rescind any comments that sounded like I welcomed Ostor posting.
