About the Scythe

A scythe is a big cutting tool with a long handle and a wide, curved blade. Its length lets a farmer stand up straight and swing the blade in long arcs to mow grass or cut grain. Before machines took over, it was the main way to bring in a harvest. Print this for a farm-history lesson and trace the long handle down to the sweeping blade.

A scythe's long handle lets a farmer cut grass while standing upright.
It was the main harvesting tool before tractors and machines.
