Sparx SAMURAI™

Great investment, simplifies a key step in sharpening

One of the challenges with sharpening your own blades is the final touches - like deburring the edges. Using a flat stone can be tricky, takes practice and is something my 10yr old can't do - although he uses our Sparx 3 to sharpen his own skates. Enter the Sparx SAMURAI. Sharpen, then simply run the blades through a single SAMURAI pass each side and it's all done - consistently every time. Now the 10 yr old can do the whole bit.

Professional Feeling Edges Without the Guesswork

I honestly didn’t fully understand what proper deburring was supposed to feel like until I started using the Sparx Samurai. It works phenomenally and gives the edges a super smooth, consistent finish that immediately feels more professional. I still keep a gummy stone around for goalie skates and a few situations where the skate or holder doesn’t fit the machine well, but for normal player skates this thing is awesome. My friends and clients genuinely notice and appreciate the difference. One thing worth mentioning: my first deburring ring seemed to have a defect. It was leaving behind streaks/residue that I could wipe off with a scour pad, but I didn’t want to be doing that on clients’ or friends’ higher end blades. I reached out to Sparx right away and they immediately sent me a replacement ring. The new one worked exponentially better and completely changed the experience. Really impressive product overall, and equally impressive customer support.

Absolutely love this thing! No going back!

This is a product everyone should have, regardless if you have a Sparx machine or not. Makes deburring process so easy and quick. Leaves a perfect edge every time. Given how much we sharpen skates in house I could nitpick and say I wished lasted longer per disc, but honestly I also don’t count how many times I’ve used it. This thing rocks and can’t imagine sharpening skates without it.
