The device includes a polishing surface for polishing the skate blade, blade guides having an opening therebetween for supporting the skate blade while the skate blade is being polished by the polishing surface, and a frame for holding the polishing surface and the blade guides. To polish a skate blade, a polishing compound is applied to the polishing surface, the skate blade is placed in the opening of the blade guides such that the bottom surface of the skate blade contacts the polishing surface, and the skate blade is slid against the polishing surface, while applying a downward force to press the skate blade against the polishing surface, until the bottom surface of the skate obtains a desired polished state.
