Abstract
A ski sharpener for simultaneously honing the vertical and horizontal surfaces of a ski edge which comprises a base member having a base portion and a connected side portion disposed at right angles to provide a support or base against which a plurality of file sections are longitudinally and vertically spaced to provide an intermittent filing surface in two planes disposed normal to one another whereby the intermittent filing surfaces are arranged to simultaneously engage the vertical and horizontal surfaces of a ski edge in a honing operation. In one form of the device the ski sharpener is provided with one set of intermittent filing surfaces, and in another form the ski sharpener is provided with a plurality of sets of intermediate filing surfaces whereby the degree of coarseness of each set varies.
Claims6
A ski edge sharpener comprising a base member and file means mounted on said base member, said file means including a plurality of file sections staggered along said base member whereby said sections have complementary filing surface adapted to effect the simultaneous filing of the vertical and horizontal surfaces of a ski edge, said base member comprises a base portion and a connected side portion, said portions being disposed normal to one another and at least one file section being connected to said base portion in space relationship to said side portion, and at least one file section being connected to said side portion in spaced relationship to said base portion whereby the spacing of said file sections is such that the respective filing surfaces of said files engage the vertical and horizontal surfaces of a ski edge.
A ski sharpener for honing a ski edge comprising a base member having a flat base portion adapted to extend parallel to the bottom surface of a ski and a side portion connected to the edge of said base portion and disposed at right angle thereto and which side portion is adapted to be disposed adjacent and parallel to a side edge of a ski, at least one file section connected to said base portion, said file section being spaced from said side portion, and a file section connected to said side portion which is spaced from said base portion, said file sections being disposed so that the side connected file section engages the vertical side edge of a ski and the base connected file section engages the horizontal bottom edge of a ski, and a spacer connected to said base portion for maintaining said base portion parallel to the bottom surface of a ski during a honing operation wherein both the vertical side edge and horizontal bottom edge of a ski are simultaneously honed by relative movement of said sharpener relative to the ski edge.
A ski sharpener comprising a base member having a base portion and a side portion disposed normal thereto, said base portion being disposed intermediate to said side portion, and a plurality of file sections disposed to each side of said base portion and adjacent to said connected side portion, said file sections disposed to one side of said base portion having a coarser filing surface than the file sections connected to the other side of said base portion, and a spacer means connected to said base portion for guiding and maintaining the filing surfaces of its respective filing sections when in use parallel to the surface of said ski.
