Best video I have seen on sharpening. Just bought a made-in-Austria Scythe (OneScytheRevolution) and want to delay peening as long as possible. This will help!

You are a very skilled man, your technique was flawless on handling such a large blade. Your technique took very little effort on such a large tool. I was wondering if you know where I can get a 1 1/4" diameter strong metal clamp for the middle of the scythe shaft for structural stability. I have a scythe with a wood handle that uses a bolt to connect two halves of the shaft, but it is not strong enough in the field. I using it to cut weeds, a lot of wild brush.

This is the best video I have seen yet explaining that the stone is made to rest on the top edge for the perfect angle on the bottom. Seems it takes all the guess work out for the right angle. Thanks for the info. Aint bought a scythe yet but im gonna. My Grandpa had an old American Scythe on the old farm back in the 70s. With F E D N O W and Satans Cashless society being pushed. I might not want to buy Satan's Gas for my Tractor. Would be nice to have a tool to use to cut my pastures if they succeed at setting this Beast System up. REJECT F E D N O W! Reject C B D C! REJECT Cash L E S S So - Cie - ty! Patience! GOD WINS!

Interesting. Do you have any method for sharpening knives with strong inwardly curved blades like karambits or recurved blades? Thanks

I have used the scythe stones on a karambit and it worked great. They are narrow and easily follow the curve.

Is that a Murray Carter neck knife?

Nope, I learned originally from Murray years ago. When he was still teaching out of a small shop at his house.

This looks like an American scythe, which is not peened, just stone sharpened

It is a Marugg Sythe, and can be peened.

Can you peen with American and European types? Thought peening was just for European

Do not peen a blade labeled 'American.' Tempered steel used in such scythes is much harder - meaning it lasts much longer between sharpenings and you grind them instead of peening them.

Use a steel flat file. Steel sharpens steel. All that sharpening stone stuff is a tremendous waste of time to someone that has a ton of work to do. USE A STEEL FLAT FILE. It takes like ten seconds and you are cutting again. And never PEEN or hit your blade with a hammer to sharpen it, ONLY use a hammer if the blade has a HUGE dent or some other terrible damage. That peening is a great way to destroy your gear.

Thanks for this info! I'm having to mow a small-ish area of grass that got away from me, and as I purchased a scythe ages ago from a yard sale, I'm ready to give it a try! Wish me luck!

What you are doing in this step is honing an already sharp blade. You really aren't sharpening here. You CAN grind an Austrian/Continental style blade, but it needs to be peened for the best edge. American/English style blades should only be ground. The blade he is showing is an Austrian/Continental style blade.
