The art of skate sharpening has a long and proud lineage in Canada (since 1800's). Watch a master at his craft here.

Perfect! Another little piece of Canadiana!

I got the Fred stamp of approval on this one and I am proud!! Ok, so safe to say skate sharpening is part of Canadian canon. Thank you Fred:)

@@TributetoCanada I still use my Super Tacks that I bought in 1976. I don't skate as often as I'd like, but I still visit the sharpener a few times a year. To me it's a part of Canadiana, but I suppose they sharpen skates in Norway too.
