Ice Skate Sharpening Rates & Fees

We can sharpen your skates to any size hollow, and it has no effect on our fee. Our skate sharpening rates depend on how quickly you need them back. If you leave your skates overnight, we charge the least. Need them back the same day, we charge slightly more. Need them sharpened while you wait, we charge a bit more. Overnight skate sharpenings are encouraged, as they place the least amount of demand on our time.

Leave the skates over night, giving us roughly 24hrs.
*Overnight Sharp, Player Skates... $9 **Goalie/Figure/Pond Skates... $13

Same day skate sharpenings must be left with us for at least several hours.
*Same Day Sharp, Player Skates...$13 **Goalie/Figure/Pond Skates... $18

While you Wait skate sharpenings place the highest demand on our time, and although walk-ins are welcome, this service cannot be guaranteed without an appointment. 
*While You Wait Adds A $12.00 Surcharge To Any Kind Of Skate

*Brand new skates never sharpened skates incur a surcharge of $12 for the first sharpening. The type of service (overnight, same day or while you wait) plus the surcharge equals the price we charge.  We waive all first time sharpening fees when you purchase skates from our shop. Brand new skates do not have a hollow yet, and our fee reflects the time and materials necessary to grind a hollow into the blades.

**There is a $5 surcharge on Goalie/Figure skates because the thickness of the blades takes a greater toll on the sharpening stone. Pond skates take a lot more abuse, so the surcharge is applied to them as well.


Ice Hockey & Inline

We have ice skates! We currently stock skates from Bauer, CCM and Reebok. Aside from ice skates, there is also wide selection of ice hockey equipment and protective gear here at Eddie's. We have ice hockey sticks and inline hockey sticks, as well as ice hockey pucks and roller hockey pucks and balls. Replacement blades and shafts, hockey tape and laces are always in good supply. Protective equipment for players (goalie equipment is special order only) can also be found here, such as: hockey helmets, chest protectors, elbow pads, and shin guards, hockey helmet replacement parts, socks, athletic supporters, Johnny Guards, mouth-guards, sharpening stones, and much, much more!

Pro-stock hockey sticks

New, used and repaired Pro-stock hockey sticks from the Hershey Bears & Baby Penguins for sale! The broken sticks are repaired w/ the SRS system, and sold at a fraction of the original cost! Some of the unbroken sticks were only used once! This is a fabulous opportunity to get a really nice stick for very little money. Our inventory of Pre-owned Pro Stock sticks is unpredictable; stop in often to see what's available. You can even make requests; we can try to get those sticks you love.

Figure Skating

We stock women's figure skates from Riedell all year round, in different styles and skill levels. Men's figure skates are special order only, sorry fellas. Eddie has been fitting figure skaters since 1985, so you can be sure you'll get the right fit.

Ice Skate Blade Profiling

Eddie can also profile your hockey skates for you. Profiling your blades is one of the best things you can do to improve your skating. Profiling finds the balance point on the boot, and then a custom edge is ground into the blade centered on that balance point. This process ensures that both blades have exactly the same shape and pitch, and its easy to imagine why that would indeed make it easier to skate.

  • Anatomy of a Skate Blade Hollow Did you know that the size of the hollow on your skate blade has a big effect on how you skate? Knowledge of your skate blade hollow can help improve your skating by achieving a desired effect.The hollow is defined by the size of radius that is ground into the skate blade. See the diagram on the right. The blade on the left has a small radius, or hollow, and therefore yields a deeper cut with more bite, and it will glide a little slower. The blade on the right has a larger radius, or hollow, and therefore yields a shallower cut with less bite, and it will glide a little faster. So, depending on your personal skating style ...
