The Faithfull Countryman Scythette is a smaller version of the agricultural scythe with a long reach tubular steel handle and a detachable blade. Used for cutting through light brush, rough long grass and foliage. The long handle helps relieve back ache from bending, while the large blade makes quick work of clearing large overgrown areas. The scythette is an ideal solution for cutting rough long grass and foliage in places inaccessible to large machinery and an eco-friendly solution to the use of large petrol trimmers, as it uses no petrol and creates no pollution. Blade requires sharpening before use. A selection of scythe sharpening stones are available from Faithfull: FAISCYTHER Round, FAISCYTHEO Oval, FAISCYTHEF Flat. Blade Length: 325mm
