Now, to be honest, I really don't think they make them like this anymore, but not because they don't make scythes. I only just found out today, because Eor was researching how to set the handles (the orientation of them on the long part can be changed) that they DO make scythes, and that the design has advanced in the past few years, so that your stance can be more upright. It amazes me that a design which has been used for hundreds of years was not already perfected. Now I want a new one so Eor won't hurt his lower back cleaning out the weeds. But I do think this one is really pretty. :)
ETA: When I went grocery shopping and realized that I still had a damned SCYTHE in the back seat of the car I had to chuckle. :)
