Abstract

A replaceable blade skate comprises inexpensive, light, easily changed blades adapted to fit to multiple rocker curvatures. A torque limiting device provides for easy replacement and adjustment of blades by consumers. Replaceable toe and heel caps provide protection and color-coding. The sometimes undesirable gap between the boot and blade portion of the skate can be eliminated with the construction of the skate of the invention.
