Zandstra Sharpening Jig

The jig is crafted from a single piece of extruded aluminum, which eliminates the flex and loose connections often found in multi-part jigs. This solid construction provides a rigid, consistent platform that keeps your blades perfectly aligned while you work.

It is specifically engineered for skates with leather boots. While it works well for many traditional styles, it may not be suitable for modern skates with rigid plastic or carbon fiber shells.

Yes, the anodized finish is more than just cosmetic. It creates a harder, wear-resistant surface that protects the aluminum from corrosion and scratches, ensuring the jig remains precise even after years of regular use.

Absolutely. The design is straightforward and prioritizes ease of use, making it an excellent entry point for skaters who want to maintain their own equipment without needing a complex professional setup.

The jig itself is the platform that holds your skate in place. You will still need your own sharpening stone or file to actually perform the sharpening, as those are not included with the jig.
