Hi all!
I bought some MK Gold Stars 8" on clearance so no returns.
FB users have helped me identify that the blades are probably from the 70s, because 80s blades onwards had more spin spot and side holes for temp mounting.
I currently have the same problems/questions:
1. The chrome relief is like 1mm, how much life is there in my brand new blades? Are they doomed after 3 sharpenings? How did old-timey people do it?
2. The heel life is only like 1/2". Is this considered flat? Will this blade skate more like a flatter blade like a pattern 99 or phantom?
Thanks so much for everyone's help!
