Hi. It needs to be sharpened. My daughter is size 9 and i got her an 11. The 11 fit well.

Skate is ready to wear. No need to.sharpen. I would go up one size. Read previous reviews as well and that will help guide you in size as it did for me.

It doesn't matter of your shoe size. You should be fine. Both me and my husband use it and he has big feet and I have small feet.

It's decent size, probably 18" x 24" (maybe a little bigger, I've already cut and used mine)... bigger than I was expecting

Size 10 which is good for SHORT cuts such as stomach and around personal areas. A person with little experience should not really use a ten blade. IT is also good for shaving poodle's feet.

yes, use a sharp blade. I did trim one to use as part of a collage, but if you want to use the mat as intended (on a desk) it would be best to order a size that closes fits your dest, as the edges of the mat, if cut, could present a hazard.

The soles are made large enough to fit 95 percent of all shoes (my opinion), so expect to carefully remove the excess with a very sharp and thin blade like those in a utility knife.

Yes I have used it many times only had to cut a small piece off cause someone left a shoe mark but I use it over and over :)

0.380 Inches (3/8") or 9.6 mm (I used a vernier caliper on mine). Very sharp; for my toenails (male) they work fine if you make two or three cuts.

The SIZES are TRUE size to each fitting. If you are exactly US 8.5, perhaps order a Size 9, but it is WIDE cut, so it does not fit narrow cutting shoe. But if you are slight under 8.5, then buy Size 8. Good luck.

no. it will need sharpening in that period of time, given the amount of usage in a business kitchen.

I don't know, I certainly am not using them. When I got them and found out you have to trim them to size, then put them in for 20 minutes the first day, 30 minutes the next, and so on, I decided to return them. I don't have time for such nonsense, I need an insole I can just throw into my shoes and go. These are a project. I have work to do at the office, can't be playing with my shoes. Sorry.

I did not need to cut mine but I don't see why you wouldn't be able to trim them a little around the front edge. The heel cup and arch are made of several layers so you would not want to cut there. I have high arches and plantar fasciitis. I have purchased custom made orthotics and several other expensive types and these are the only ones that have enough cushion and enough support. They are amazing!

I had mine sharpened befor the first use but was told that they really didn't need it. I guess it depends on what level skater you are. If your are a competative figure skater you'd want them sharp. If you are like me, a rank shakey amature take them like they are.

Definitely. Either shoestring or standard size. Being able to control the height of the cut makes for endless possibilities. We love it. It's worth the price.

I cut mine to my normal shoe size 7 1/2 and it worked. The instructions that came with them were accurate

Depends on the boot: work boots sure it'll fit. But it can't be a low cut boot or else it won't fit inside. Low cut boots that are like regular shoes are fitied down to the centimeter but work boots or hiking boots have extra room to strap your knife on. Hope this helps. And the thickness of the knife isn't that thick but it's made in China so I'm very disappointed.... Ifeel I were you I'd get anew American made boot knife. It's a shame smith and Wesson is outsourcing to China.
