    Just thinking about it... I'd like to pick up a spare handle for my scythe... anyone know where to get one?
    Give a man fire, and he'll be warm for a day!
    Light a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life!

    If you're going to fight, then fight like you're the third monkey on the ramp into Noah's arc... and brother, it's starting to rain.

    If it is predictable then it is preventable....... Gordon Graham

    So if it is predictable and preventable then you better prepare.

    Cutting by hand is something I did at the cabin as a kid, because that was the only way. back then it was fun, but this video reminds me of how much work it was:



    And in hindsight, I remember the sore muscles after. lol

    Although that was an almost straight handle... mine is more like this one:



    The same blade should fit on either though, no? Or will the angle of attachment be different?

    Mine is the American style with bent handle. It is a lot of work. I planted a small plot of wheat just to see what I would need to do to have a liveable harvest if needed. It wore my ass out. One tip, be sure your blade is good and sharp and have a hone with you to touch it up at the first sign of dulling?

    Yeh, sharp is the key. I think my dad used to drag a rock down the blade to dull it to keep us kids busy longer.

    RELIGION IS LIKE A PENIS
    Its fine to have one,
    Its fine to be proud of it,
    But please dont whip it out in public and start waving it around,
    And PLEASE dont try to force it down my children's throats.

    An armed society is a polite society. Manners are good when one may have to back up his acts with his life.
