Default A Dairy Farmer Neighbor I Worked for Had Tools On His Barn Wall too

Thanks Linda,

My grandfather and the old Dairy Farmer had the same kind of Thick
and Curved - Heavy scythe handles hanging on their shed or barn walls.

I recently learned this is the "American Version."

The European type of snath is much lighter and only slightly curved or
straight.

In fact.

A large # of YouTube Videos feature women in Long dresses cutting
fields of hay.

Proof this isn't a brute force game.

Thanks,
Glenn
