HOLMENKOL Profi Edger – Edge Guide

HOLMENKOL Profi Edger is an adjustable ergonomic edge guide with a file and bearings, designed for sharpening the side edges of skis and snowboards. The guide includes a coarse Cut 0 file. The part that contacts the base is equipped with bearings that protect the base from scratches and allow the file to glide more smoothly.

Adjustable angle from 90° to 85°. Suitable for oxide stones, coarse files and diamond files.

Included ICECUT file: 80 × 20 mm, coarse, Cut 0

Recommended Edge Angles

• 86° – for very good and powerful skiers who want maximum edge responsiveness. Not recommended for beginners.
• 87° – the most commonly used angle across skiing disciplines. Suitable for intermediate to advanced adult skiers.
• 88° and 89° – suitable for recreational skiers and children.
• 90° – for freestyle snowboards.

Use

Before using the guide, remove the plastic/phenol above the ski edge with a phenol cutter. We recommend wearing gloves when working with the guide.

Set the desired angle using a coin. The file should be oriented in the direction of sharpening, as indicated by the arrow. Apply gentle pressure to the guide at approximately a 45° angle to the edge.

After use, clean the bearings and file. After filing, remove the burr using a diamond file or stone.
