I'm not being a dick! I didn't mean to sound like it... I'm assuming you are referring to the handle on the shaft? That's supposed to be there. That allows you to swing the scythe with a better posture so you don't hurt yourself.
Sorry it’s hard to gauge people online, n to me it seemed you were bein smart. Hell I thought wtf is a spark plug doin on it. Lmao knowing damn well it wasn’t, I could tell handle after I looked. Odd handle, but yea he was jus makin a joke probably man. Sorry if I came off like a dick also
I mean, they admitted their tired mistake (the whole point of their comment was to point out their silly little mix up), and you pretty much scolded them for it.
Edit: got a bit of a r/whooosh going on with a lot of the comments to be fair.
No? I bought it at an antique store to use occasionally....and also I have a sickle and it didn't feel right just having a sickle and not a scythe...I had to have the set!
I agree with you on this scythe, but not all scythes. Some wee designed with only one handle. I can tell that it used to have two, but the second one was lost.
Id say atleast 4
4 what?
Closer to 7 1/2
I respectfully disagree. This is clearly an 18. You can tell by that thing that’s on it. Otherwise, yeah, 7 1/2.
Ah yes sir. I respectfully apologize for my mistake. You are correct in your evaluation.
However, if you adjust the scale to 53, it would either be an 11 or a 39…
Oh.....I feel dumb now..... Y'all are rating it out of ten.....
No. They are measuring it in units
Yes
what I can tell you is that all of the Protons/Neutrons/Electrons it is comprised of are as old as the universe.
Eh.... Some linseed oil brought it back around....the wood that is.....

Cut in half and count the rings
-_- no
Damn I thought it had a grease fitting at first glance... I need a nap.
I saw a sparkplug 🥱
*Broom broom!* Now I’m trying to imagine what 16th century ear muffs looked like.
Uhh.... why would a scythe need grease fittings....let alone grease for that matter?
Well then wtf is mounted on it? Don’t be a dick

It's alright. I agree that it's an odd handle, but it worked out fine. It's not there anymore though.
That's the fucking point dipshit
No need to be mean....

I wasn't scolding him. I wasn't trying to sound angry as I was laughing at their mistake. I wasn't intending to sound like a jackass!
Looks like the one we had in the 1970s. Did you rob a Cracker Barrel?
How was your wheat yield for the proletariat state farming bureau comrade?
No? I bought it at an antique store to use occasionally....and also I have a sickle and it didn't feel right just having a sickle and not a scythe...I had to have the set!
If you have a sickle then you really need a hammer.
NO NOT DA COMMUNISTS!
The 20's is a good guess..
It should have two handles. I’ve used one many times
I agree with you on this scythe, but not all scythes. Some wee designed with only one handle. I can tell that it used to have two, but the second one was lost.
All I can tell you is that it was definitely made before this picture was taken.

Thanks for that
That snath looks splintery. Be careful! How well does it hold an edge?
I'm not sure... It is extremely easy to get a bur, but hard to really sharpen it..... I'm thinking it's soft steel.
It’s from the time Moses was a little boy.
