FEATURES
LASER MEASUREMENT
The revolutionary Sparx BEAM - or Blade Edge Accuracy Measurement device is a patented high-tech and crazy-accurate device ensures your Sparx Sharpener is perfectly aligned and measures skate edges to 1/10,000th of an inch - the most precise skate edge measurement on the market. Sold Separately
BLUETOOTH & WIFI CONNECTIVITY
The all-new Sparx Sharpener 3 and Sparx Sharpener 3 PRO features Bluetooth and WiFi connectivity - the first of its kind in the skate sharpening world. Connect the Sparx Sharpener 3 to the revolutionary SPARX BEAM and to the SPARX APP and unlock a whole new world of controls and features.
MULTI-FUNCTION LCD DISPLAY
A simplified user interface allows the Sparx Sharpener to be intuitive - adjust number of sharpening cycles, monitor the life of your Grinding Ring, receive safety alerts, and sharpen - all from the easy-to-use control pad. The custom electronics continuously controls and monitors all sharpening functions to ensure an accurate and safe sharpening.
SELF-CENTERING SKATE CLAMP
Our patented skate clamp design perfectly aligns the skate to the grinding ring, eliminating the challenges posed by varying blade types and thicknesses. Simply depress the clamp lever, insert the skate into the skate clamp and you’re ready to go. No need to line up the skate blade with the grinding ring – the self-centering skate clamp takes the guesswork out of achieving a perfect sharpening every time.
PRECISE & POWERFUL CARRIAGE
The Carriage moves the Grinding Ring across the skate blade with consistent pressure, translation speed, and RPM. This unparalleled consistency ensures a smooth surface finish every time and the consistent pressure and speed preserves the blade’s profile/rocker for the life of the blade, unlike traditional sharpeners that alter profiles after just a few sharpenings.
ON-BOARD FILTRATION SYSTEM
Dust accumulation is inevitable when sharpening skates, but we have you covered. The Sparx Sharpener features an integrated filter system and powerful fan that collects and filters out dust particles, allowing your sharpener – and surroundings – to remain clean. The advanced electronics automatically notifies you when its time to change your filter.

- CCChris C.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars2 weeks agoAmazing piece of equipment. Was so needed for family of 4 skaters
Amazing piece of equipment. Family of 4 on the ice 8 times a week at a minimum. This has saved us so much time going to the pro shop and also money. So nice to just pull it on the table and do all the kids skates in a matter of minutes for the weekend. So easy to use and the app is amazing. Love how I can have a profile for each of my kids, tells me when there skates were last sharpened and also what radius. So far I can't get enough of using this machine. So satisfying just watching them sharpen. Never gets old. Looking forward to taking it to our first tournament and use at the hotel while having a few beers with the other parents. A++
- AAdamVerified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars4 months agoGreat sharpener
Recently purchased the Sparx 3 sharpener with the Beam. Fantastic results and consistent every time. Household of 3 hockey players, it made sense.
Very pleased with the results
- CBChad B.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars8 months agoPro Bundle
Got the Pro Bundle—awesome quality components. In hindsight, I probably would have gone with a smaller bundle since we only have seven skaters in our home, and the Pro base isn’t super practical. That said, it sharpens skates really well once you get the depth dialed in.
Figure skates are a bit of a pain. The adapters are finicky—they work, but for the price, I expected a simpler solution.
The beam laser is super cool. Not a necessity, but if you have the cash, I recommend it. Twice now, we’ve had slight uneven spots that the beam caught, which looked perfectly fine to the eye after the initial sharpening.
The best accessory in the bundle, hands down, is the carrying case. I expected a cheap, flimsy bag, but it’s rock solid. I have zero concerns about damage to the machine during transport. Even the zippers are way higher quality than expected—similar to the rope bags we used back in my tree removal days.
The one thing I don’t love is the pricing for grinding wheels. It’s reasonable compared to paying a shop to sharpen, but it drastically increases the payback period. I’m sure some one factored in the “time saved” argument as a sales tool, but that doesn’t really hold up for us. I'd rather they just charge more for the machine one time. Also, the wheels seem to wear down faster than advertised based on my first month of use. We’ll see how they hold up over time, but at $85 CAD plus shipping each, they’re more than double the cost of diamond grinding discs used for carbide…
- ALAndrew L.Verified ReviewerRated 5 out of 5 stars9 months agoGreat for the whole Family
Family of 5 with various levels of skill, and use but the sparks 3 captures it all. My youngest wears youth 8 and I wear senior 9. Works for everything in between. I also have 2 boys that are goalies, a quick sharp with risers keeps these two tuned at all times for their competitive level hockey. The edge checker is awesome also. Got the alignment Dialed in perfectly.
- MDMichael D.Rated 5 out of 5 stars1 year agoFamily of 5 with lots of ice times.
Family of 5.
I play hockey and coach my daughters U12 and U7 ringette teams.
My son is a U9 goalie.
Combined we have about 10 ice times a week at least.
I did an original 4 cycles my first sharpen then a single cycle every 3 ice times.
That way my blades are always sharp and help me demo’s for the kids.
Saves us time and easy to use and also lets us use our skating tiles at home as skates have to be sharpened after every time after using those tiles.
Took me couple hours for initial setup and profiles for everyone’s skates, 5 pairs (YouTube beam and barcode setup). But now it’s just 3 minutes a sharpen and I don’t have to leave the house.
Only complaint is I wish they let you pick your own grinding wheels in the bundle package, as I’d like a 9/16 for my son. (Goalie)
