Spear & Jackson4752SS Scythette, Black, 95.5x9x7.5 cm

Not able to completely tighten the two pieces together. It was very flimsy and did not cut grass. I returned this item because it was worthless.

Made short work of my garden after a few months of neglect, reducing it all to length that I could even out with my manual mower. Makes for a very easy tidy up too as it all comes out as long bits rather than lots of tiny ones scattered everywhere.It doesn't come sharpened - you'll need to do this and keep it that way for optimum use, but if you do then this is a wonderful tool. If you dislike the idea of having to sharpen something then this is not the tool for you (seemingly the reason for others rating it poorly).

pour tenir cette faucille une poignée serait très utile , je n'ai pas réussi à en trouver . ou en trouver merci de votre réponse . autrement parfait kenavo

Purtroppo è risultata una baracchetta, difficile da maneggiare e da far funzionare perchè ha un taglio ed una lama molto limitati, quasi giocattolo. Manico molto corto, non pratica e non taglia ma "mastica" l'erba anzichè falciarla...

I bought this hoping it would save my back a little, and also save a little electricity by not using a strimmer. Of course I remembered the scythe my dad used to use, many decades ago, in the days when tools were made sturdily, meant to last long enough to be passed down through the generations, and when the design had been honed through previous generations to do the best job possible. Knowing nothing is made that way anymore I didn't expect to get something that perfect but this is nowhere near up to the job. The handle is much too short, even for me at 5 ft 4, to hold the blade at the best angle without bending over almost double. It certainly won't save my back as I had hoped. It's also too lightweight for the job.Not being very muscular I don't want anything too heavy to lift, but for the job it's meant to do it requires a certain weight behind it. This feels like it wouldn't take much to make it crumble. How I wish some enterprising company would take it upon themselves to make tools the way they were made in my father's day.

rasorsharp non évocateur pour une coupe idéale , inutilisable sans un sérieux affûtage préalable !!! dommage le produit semblait intéressant sur les photos
