ABSTRACT:
A protector for the projecting forward end of a hockey skate blade consists of a one-piece moulding of tough resilient plastics material which conforms to the shape of the forward end of the blade and provides a pair of side flanges extending rearwardly from the frontal portion to lie against opposite sides of the blade adjacent the forward end. As applied to a conventional hockey skate having a toe portion extending from the forward end of the blade to the sole plate, the protector may be secured to the blade by means of integral, inwardly facing, opposed abutment flanges which engage the rear edge of the tow portion. In a preferred embodiment of the invention the toe bracket by which the blade is connected to the sole plate includes an elongated bifurcated portion consisting of a pair of bracket members defining therebetween a slot having a frontal opening, and the protector has a medial web which extends into the slot and is retained by the bracket members.
