Bauer PROSHARP Blade Angle Tester

Even the best sharpening machines can drift over time or produce uneven edges due to blade wear. This tool acts as a critical quality control step, letting you verify that your edges are perfectly level before you step onto the ice.

The Bauer PROSHARP tester is designed specifically for standard hockey skate blades. It works effectively across most major brands and blade profiles, provided the blade thickness is within the standard range for hockey skates.

By using the tester to check your blades immediately after sharpening, you can identify if your machine is consistently cutting one edge deeper than the other. If you notice a pattern of unevenness, you can adjust your sharpening machine's alignment settings accordingly.

It is a precision instrument, so the most important maintenance is keeping it clean and dry. Store it in a protective case or a safe spot in your equipment bag to prevent the measuring surfaces from getting scratched or damaged, which could compromise its accuracy.

While the tool itself doesn't change your skating ability, it ensures your equipment is performing exactly as it should. Consistent, level edges provide better stability, more predictable turns, and increased confidence during tight maneuvers on the ice.
