Why do you need to edge it? You planning on boarding down concrete? You should only ever have to deburr.

I agree with Grill, you don’t need to worry about the edges unless it’s so icy that it’s dangerous/painful to be out. If anything most recommend to de-tune magetraction boards rather than sharpen.

I’m sure the friendly guys at Mervin will be only too happy to answer your question - http://www.mervin.com/index.php/contact.

i've got an 08/09 skate banana mate and it's not been re-edged since i had it. it's only ever been de-burred. but if you are hell bent on doing your edges, lib tech do manufacture a magnatraction edge tool which you can buy from bucks boarding in milton keynes.
Do you think it's possible to determine the future by the shape of your poo in the morning?
