The Sythe
I got enterested in the scythe a few years ago and ran across these videos again today.
I looks as though there is a mother, father and daughter doing the work. The first time I saw the videos it made the rest of the world look like idiots with their weed whackers. I would really appreciate it if you guys would look at these and see just how far backwards we have went with dependency on oil. The first Video is called the hay pusher. I dont think many kids would work this hard these days but my first girlfriend did. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fIVAlV8YVF0 The second video is an old one with the whole family out cutting with scythes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gL2_chKPWjE The rest I will put a link up to here. https://www.youtube.com/user/kaivido Everyone seems to be working bare footed.
