How to make a Scythe 

Glad that you showed how well it cuts -- try adding a "riser" handle for your right hand, and smooth the edges of the wood (you might have done that already?) for a more comfortable grip and avoiding splinters. A lot of the scythes that I've seen on RU-vid have those risers such that the person isn't needing to bend forward :-)

That's way to thick. A scythes back is 1,5-2mm. This will be too heavy to use. Sorry to say so. 😉

Seems to work alright for a home made job. Pretty cool

Great job! I'm inspired 👍

Thank you so much for the good ideas on how to make the scythe. nice Job. I understood your English, nice try.. Hasta la vista, Saludos desde Tiquicia or Costa Rica.. Aufwiedersehen...

Esta muy bueno tu proyecto. Voy a hacer una inspirado en tu video . Aquí en Argentina están muy caras las guadañas. Gracias amigo! Saludos

So super sir

Good work my dude

Very nice 👍

Hello mate. Can I get the design please 🙏

Mlid steel welding steel won't harden Ive tried it, try 80CrV2 or 5160

Can you say the measurements of the slythe and the and the angle of the curvature?

👍

Are you from Germany?

Good luck. It’s very thick heavy. Grind more thinner.

Don't you have a lawn mower? I have an old snapper with the deck all the way up for that kind of thing.

death's reserved scythe

Bro,. Thank you so much

What is the size of metal?

Make the Handel round

Try with a brushcutter instead of that.Today's brushcutters are more accesibile and cheaper than ever!

Jaki to typ blachy / żelaza?

The blade shape is wrong and how u using also wrong

Nahhhhh,,,, it's a poor scythe

F- you obviously did no research on what a scythe is, how it’s used, proper blade size or geometry, no research on what materiel even to make it from…. If this was a “tester” project to test a few things, then it would still only be mediocre at best…. Literally everything about your scythe is incorrect, it won’t cut for crap, won’t lay grass down properly, it won’t keep an edge, and it won’t get you anything but laughed at in any homestead community…. If only there was a body of informational videos somewhere so you could have gone and done a little research before wasting that perfectly good piece of mild steel… Also, rust does not indicate mild steel, it just indicates it isn’t great stainless steel as all mild steel, carbon steel, cheap stainless steel, and most tool steels will rust, most with very little difficulty… Go look at a few videos, get an old leaf spring, a torch and an oil bath minimum and try again, or heck, go hit a few estate sales and yard sales and such and get you a real vintage one to use…. No hate, just disappointment at how little effort went into preparing this video…. You can do better

Whatis blad. Size
