Just read up on peening the edge. Very interesting technique for maintaining a sharp thin edge. #LearnSomethingNewEveryDay
Next up is the weedwacker vs scythe trimming grass around the stone wall contest
And the weed whacker wins hands down.
Way I figure it is this way.
If I was doing the week whacker, I could get that patch done in twice as long as the weed whacker demo guy.
If I was doing the Scythe - I would have a heart attack, end up in the hospital with medical bills, and need to hire someone 4-6 months later.
The scythe would cost 4,000 times more than the weed whacker and take at least 6 months to get the job done.
Weed Whacker WINS.
I have a scythe, and know how to use it.
I find it takes so long to keep it sharp (and it is useless unless it is very sharp) that I end up using the weed whacker.
I went to Sears looking for a new scythe to replace my weed whacker. The Sears employees must have thought I had a lisp, because they had no clue what I was talking about!
