Here’s. Photo of them stacked on top of a brand new pair of LS3. Both sharpened at 9/16 and what's supposed to be a 10' radius.
I don't know if they shortened the radius or what the hell they did, but I'm not exactly pleased with the result so I'm looking for recommendations on other places to get my steel sharpened
I'm wondering if it's even worth complaining

I've never actually been to that rink, but it's right next door to my office so that would be convenient. Thank you

I did speak with the manager at the pro shop and he offered to provide me new Bladetech steel at no charge. I can't seem to find any reviews or feedback on their product outside of their website. Does anyone have any experience with Bladetech and how it compares to Step?

I purchased a new set of Step Blacksteel from a member here. The pro shop gave me a set of Bladetech. Obviously sharpened both the new Step and Bladetech at no charge. I'll probably sell the butchered pair of Step to recover costs of buying a second set and will use the Bladetech as backup steel.
There's one primary person at the pro shop that I've since had good dialogue with since the incident and he also skates Step blacksteel. He gave me his cell and said whenever I need a sharpening to make sure he does it
