Wrong Hammer, But…

I got a new hand sickle in the other day, to help trim the tall Johnson grass around the house, deck, etc. Only just now did I think of this:

Ha, I know, wrong kind of hammer, but it was all I had on me. I lost my 3-lb. sledge somewhere. I got the sickle to help replace the weedeater, which in light of peak oil, may be just ahead of the curve. It works fantastic and the blade is very strong, Austrian made. I picked it up from Scythe Supply in Perry, Maine, and would recommend them to anyone out there looking for more traditional grass mowing tools.
