Figure skate blades

Figure skates are different compared to ice hockey skates. They use a different blade width and they also have toe picks (master picks and a drag pick). Most figure skate blades are parallel like ice hockey skates; there are however some more expensive models that use a completely different shape.

Regular: Skate blade is parallel.

View from the side
Side-honed: Skate blade is concave (a hollow shape on each side).
Slimline: Skate blade is thinner at the bottom (in the ice).
Tapered edge: Skate blade is in an angle at the bottom (in the ice).
