Sharpening Prices

[AIREAYE 248]

Depends on the place here in the GTA, but it's generally $4 for the big-box stores, $5 for ProHockeyLife, Hockey Experts, $6-8 (don't remember) for the LHSs.

FBV is $10 for the LHSs and $5 at HockeyExperts :D

$5 bucks. Haven't found an FBV place around here within ~15 mins. I think Perfect edge in Howell does, not sure...

They do. $8.

Wrangler as far as I know Total Hockey is the only place I have found with FBV in the Chicago area.

I pay $5 per sharpening. My LHS does a decent job on them.

Of topic, but do you work at RDV? I was there towards the beginning of the month for the Firefighter hockey tournament.

I was there for that tournament.

Lhs I work at charges $5. And then $10 for new skates not purchased with us. No fbv machine quite yet tho.

Currently I'm getting mine done at the Fessenden School, because it's easiest for me to get to. It's $6 there.

Thanks. Northbrook is the closest for me. Where do you go?

[skyscrape 5]

I was there for that tournament.

Nice! It is a nice complex and who ever did my skates there did a really good job.

[JR Boucicaut 3810]

What did the guy look like?

I did not see who did it, I dropped them off to a shorter guy up front. There where five or six pair ahead of me so I came back later.

[JR Boucicaut 3810]

Ahh...probably me. Haha...I worked I think 2 of the 3 days.

I hate it!! They put an 100/50 FBV on my skates and they dont feel "sharp"?? Got them back, put them on in shinny and wanted to sharpen them again!! Any ideas from MSH'ers? If your a guy that likes really sharp skates....what FBV would I use? TY

Especially the last few pages, regarding your question.

My LHS charges $4 if you bought skates there and $7 if you didn't. Don't offer FBV yet.
