All figure skate blades will eventually need to be resharpened.
A skate mate can help you pro-long the sharpening, but eventually, it will need to be resharpened.
You need to ask around your rink, if a rink exists, someone must be doing sharpening. The rink needs to sharpen their rental skates (although they might just do it once a year) and hockey teams need their blades sharpened too. You might not find a GOOD figure skate sharpener, but someone should be able to at least make your blades suitable for recreational skating. Maybe a coach has the equipment?
