Well, now I own something EXTREMELY awesome.
I bought this today at a flea market for $20...
The guy said he\'d throw in the extra blade for free. I couldn\'t HELP but jump on that deal.......This scythe is PERFECT. The main handle is really long, both side handles are intact, the wood almost looks new, and the blade....OOOOOOHHHHHH the blade...I measured it from tip to end...30 inches. The replacement blade is nearly 24, and is somewhat newer...But the OTHER blade has to be around a century old. It\'s covered in rust, but is still quite thick, and QUITE sharp. The handle is in GREAT condition, and is almost 5\'2" long. This is one of the coolest things I\'ve ever come across.
Still not convinced? Judge for yourself:
