Abstract (en)

The present invention relates to an ice skate including a shoe (2) and a blade supporting frame (3) associated below the shoe. The blade edge (4) in contact with ice has gaps (8) suitable to limit the edge section in contact with the ice surface. This allows better and easier skating especially when curving. <IMAGE>
