Weeding Sickle, Serrated & Plain-Edged Combined Steel Scythe 51-Inch Adjustable Long Handle, Lightweight Long-Handled Garden Sickle Tool for Gardens, Yards, Fields & Overgrown Areas

Firstly: as other reviewers have noted, the head unscrews while in use -- I put some adhesive on the threads to work around this deficiency. More importantly: For my small lot and garden use this thing is perfect. I was just out using this sickle without the face shield, hearing protectors, heavy boots, and gaiters that I must wear to protect myself from my screaming orange and white brush cutter. I didn't have to replace any plastic blades or cutting line, suck any two stroke exhaust, or worry about the damage that thrown rocks might do. Instead I just moseyed along enjoying the act of swishing the grass and weeds down, and then the few that were tucked too tightly against an obstacle easily fell prey to my long handled grass shears afterward. In fact, less shear work was required because I can get this sickle closer to the delicate things without the risk of damaging them or the tool. Being a gimpy old git I appreciate the absence of the pain that my brush cutter causes. The shaft is in fact stainless steel or similar, being non-ferrous and hard enough to make me quickly give up on the idea of drilling into it to use screws and nuts to lock the sections together. I find the handle length and the heft of the tool to be just about perfect for my very average stature. The blade required a quick touch-up to remove the burr from the back (bottom) prior to use, and with that the edge was completely acceptable and performed well. I didn't do enough work to dull the edge but it feels like it'll hold up well enough, and I'll update my review if I find otherwise. EDITED TO ADD: I've used the thing enough to dull it, which isn't that hard to do here where the Rocky Mountains live up to their name, and found that the blade sharpened nicely with a reasonable effort. The blade is hollow ground, which is a cheap to produce but less than optimal choice for cutting fibrous materials like grasses and weeds, but I'm still happy with it and sure that I'll be happier once I've sharpened it enough times to get past the hollow and produce a proper bevel edge. (For what it's worth, you can't get a bevel edge at a reasonable price in today's world, but you can get a passable diamond sharpener for your garden tool blades for cheap. Or be one of those who cries about how neglected tools work poorly, I guess.) All in all this tool meets my needs well and, quite unlike my screaming power equipment, I enjoy using it.

Absolutely love this! I even ordered a second one for my daughter. Easy to assemble and great directions(pictures!) Excellent value for my money! I definitely recommend this! The size can be adjusted. Great design- follows the shape that I remember using when growing up on a farm. Functions exactly as it should. The blade shape makes it easy to go at the root of the weeds and cuts down easily. The blade is so sharp! It cuts through thick and thin weeds- Superior cut quality. ! Loved this so much- I can’t express enough how much I love it. So, if you are still reading- be aware, it runs on sweat equity- lol- which means using my arms to swing the sickle. A good exercise! I didn’t have to worry about recharging a battery.

This is a great sickle and the service was fast. Gave it 4 stars as the sickle head works loose. It arrived early and I used it immediately to remove tall weeds from my pollinator garden. At 5’6” it was the perfect reach. The blade is well constructed and can be sharpened. The handle is in 3 parts and can be taken apart for storage. Definely serves its purpose and I would use this seller again

Works well, but has a design flaw. The handle needs left hand threads, when applying pressure, it unscrews. I fixed this by wrapping the handle joints with duct tape. This helped.

Pleasantly surprised by the price it was able to take out some pretty thick weeds in my backyard definitely worth it sturdy tool,very sharp

The tool itself is very sturdy, it has an angle at the knife area so pretty ergonomic. You don’t have to bend down to cut the grass. There is the issue of the head coming loose during use, just use superglue on the knife head screwing part and you will be fine. Blade needs some sharpening but that’s expected on all knives. Overall a good tool.

Positives: It feels fine. Not too heavy or light. Easy to assemble. Negatives: Mine just bends the tall grass and weeds. I tried the paper test and it doesn't give a clean cut. Arrived not sharpened perhaps. I can't use if how I intended to use it. The videos show ig easily cutting through weeds bug mine can't do that. I'll give it a few more tries bug this is nope from me.

I got this sickle because I have a lot of weeds growing under my evergreens. And the vines are killing my trees - suffocating them. I'm using this sickly to clean around the trees and keep things down to the ground until I take more drastic actions, like cut about 1-2 feet of tree branches that will allow me to mow under the trees. Overall, the product did its job. It was fast, even though there were 4 sections, it held together. Sometimes I had to retighten the handles. The head was a bit small for what I wanted to do, but it did it, it's best for small areas. I was able to even cut some small branches and new growth trees. The handle was a bit short at times, so you are using your back to bend over and cut further out areas. I had to be able to reach out about 4-5 feet; maybe a 6 to 6.5 feet handle would be best. The price was good, big sickles are $150 or more.

Ich bin sehr zufrieden mit dieser Gartensense, man kann sie mitnehmen in der Größe anpassen. Ich finde sie für einen nicht so großen Garten perfekt, man macht keine Insekten sinnlos kaputt und kann auch nur einen kleinen Weg frei schneiden oder den ganzen Garten machen. Ich kann sie nur empfehlen.

Bien en lo general. Requiere que se le ponga un tornillo en las uniones porque la hoz se va volteando al usarla. También hay que afilarla. Supongo que por seguridad no viene con mucho filo.

Hoy la estrene y corta muy bien y estas de pie derecho sin bajarte la recomiendo

Très pratique et utile pour le désherbage.

Un ottimo falcetto sia per l'erba sia per i rovi. Dotato di prolunghe varie misure. Per evitare distacco delle prolunghe inserire al loro posto un manico in legno. Va bene quello dei ricambi x scope. Consigliato
