Abstract

An interchangeable ice skate blade for use with a roller skate boot of the inline skate type includes a plurality of elongate bores or slots and a single circular bore or slot of a comparable size in the region of the edge of the blade remote from the ice-engaging edge. The combination of elongate and circular bores or slots allows the blade to be compatible with roller skate boots having different points of attachment of the blade to the boot while securely retaining the blade against unintended lengthwise or transverse movement relative to the boot.
