Annual race between brushcutter and scythe - honours go to the first to cut a stand of grass. This is the British Scythe Champion against an experienced agricultural worker with a three-tine brushcutter, working flat-out. Held at the Annual Green Fair and South West Scythe Festival in Somerset, UK, on 13th June, 2010. No trick photography here - he really is that fast. Panasonic GH1
I like how the guy with the weed wacker completes his patch and doesn't rage quit. Classy

Probably doesn't realise because he's so focused 😂

This is not what a string trimmer was intended for. It's only meant for the places a mower can't get to. The lawn mower is the tool that replaced the scythe ,not the string trimmer.
And this is an example that you can use scythe instead when that situation happens.
🤓
Its a Weed Whacker. Never in my life have I heard them called string trimmers. Is that a Brit thing?
@@frankcyzko You use a scythe in hard to reach places? So that you can swing it into a fence, gate, or brick wall?
🤓 🤓 “actually”
There's a group of people bringing scythe technology to India. The small farms are still using Sickles to harvest. The farmers were *amazed* at the time saving and ease of use, talking about how much time it would save them for other chores or to do things with their children or families. Just really awesome, sharing something so archaic that can still make a difference in people's lives.
They're not just selling scythe to these folks, either. They're teaching them how to make their own, how to maintain them and the tall harvest attachment.
@@LabiaLicker omg Ive heard stories about rural India, but sometimes they sound uncontacted by the world or something
@@Rynewulf Scythes aren't as common as you may think. Lots of regions(usually rice harvesting regions, India, Southeast asia, Japan etc) didn't use Scythes historically(or it wasn't too common), perhaps due to the different harvesting requirements and conditions of rice. But then idk why scythe wasn't used in North India where wheat was usually grown. I'm more surprised that Brits (or other Europeans) never thought of introducing a tool like scythe especially considering they exported grains from here. I guess since lots of cheap labor was much more easily available here and work got done anyway, no one bothered.
@@Rynewulf > They sound uncontacted by the world or something
It's because you(and most non-indians in general) have not much idea about Indian history or the country in general and more often than not already have generally negative preconceptions of the country. Take the toilet guy above for example, the lack of toilets is(was) mostly a thing in the rural areas of some of the poorer and under developed northern states(generally more violent as well). Yet it doesn't stop people from making it an all India or mocking every Indian for it. It's like me looking at the Balkans and concluding that most of europe is similar to the Balkans.
Another example is simply this scythe thing. When people hear that 'Indians' don't use scythe traditionally, many reactions would mostly be about how 'du mb and primitive' these people are or something like that. Yet if the same people hear that some other country like Thailand or Japan don't use Scythe traditionally, the reaction wouldn't be half as negative as in the former case. Much of the cotton related machinery that was used in western world during colonial times was mechanized versions of the cotton machines used and developed in cotton industry of 'primitive India'. Funny how all this works.
@@LabiaLicker toilet increase chances of colon cancer
@@multiversetraveller3118 yeah unfortunately despite all the propaganda, the recent colonial powers only bothered to move technology around if it was personally convenient for the bureaucrats themselves like trains. They often didn't bother to make the colonised economies more efficient and productive, heck they often hamstrung them like when they forced Indians in tropical climates to buy British wool clothes

Yes, she was amazing!
The difference is the bloke with the brushcutter can keep that up for an 8 hour workday. It's not terribly visible here, but a harness carries the weight of the brushcutter, the handles are only for controlling the side to side motion. It requires very little effort to use. The bloke with the scythe looked to be slowing down towards the end of this small patch.
As for folks debating "string trimmer" vs. "weedeater" vs. "weed whacker"; this is a proper brushcutter. This is what it's made for. Lawn mowers don't do well in high growth like this and brushcutters are routinely used for areas like this where there may be stones, stumps, or uneven ground. The little thing with a single loop handle you use to trim your garden is a string trimmer, and is ironically more exhausting due to the lack of a harness to support the weight and the slouched posture required to hold it.
Throughout history, MANY more people have spent a FULL workday using a scythe than a trimmer…if the scythe is good and sharp and the person knows what they are doing, it shouldn’t take much more effort to swing a scythe all day than it does to swing a trimmer back and forth all day…and it’s quiet! But, neither tool makes a day of laying down tall grass enjoyable!
@@ililililili9726As someone that has used a scythe, he very well might be. They really aren't that physically taxing. I'd go as far to say less so than a strimmer, if it was a particularly heavy one.
Brilliant insight, Dwayne!
@@johns3106 good try, but you're caught
if you're using the scythe correctly, the heel is resting on the ground supporting most of its weight. if the snath and handles are set properly for your height and arm length, and the blade is proper sharp, a person can absolutely swing one from sunup to sundown.
As another commenter already observed, the scythe was the primary tool for mowing crops for an awful goddamn long time. The advantage of the strimmer/brush-cutter is not its speed or endurance, but the very low skill floor to use it effectively, and the wider range of materials and terrain you can use it on.
I just can’t wait to go to the next scythe festival. Seems like so much fun.
I like how they gave him a weed wacker instead of a riding/push mower because they knew that would just fuck the scythe in the ass too hard with no lube.
You're just feeding your footless fetish. I see you
Having cut tall grass both ways I will say both ways have their advantages and disadvantages. However though I still prefer the gas brush cutter simply because it can cut through heavier stuff the scythe won't cut through. If you're only ever going to do grass and have good stamina and upper body strength the scythe will definitely work for you.
Or even if you don't have much upper body strength, Jon. It's mostly technique: ruclips.net/video/gL2_chKPWjE/видео.html&ab_channel=kaivido&t=1m12s
Use a bush scythe.
There's a scythe for every purpose. Hay, lawns, brush, ditches, there's one for anything you'd be cutting. Only place a scythe doesn't do better is on STEEP ground, or with HEAVY brush, and with rocks & t posts it's easy to mess up the edge. But for most common cutting a scythe is far superior.
I like how they gave him a weed wacker instead of a riding/push mower because they knew that would just fuck the scythe in the ass too hard with no lube.
Brush scythe blades can cut saplings the size of a big thumb with one skilled stroke. A brush saw blade on a gas trimmer can cut saplings to, but it's not easy because the saw wants to walk out of the cut.

Scythe sharpened like a razor blade, incredible technique and the guy is an absolute unit. You need to have two of the those three points, no matter which ones. I don't and get tired after 3 to 4 cuts.
I like how they gave him a weed wacker instead of a riding/push mower because they knew that would just fuck the scythe in the ass too hard with no lube.
Scythes have the cool factor and less noise, but I think part of that extra time at the end could have been used to sharpen the scythe as that counts as part of the time it takes to use a scythe too. There's probably some maintenance on the brushcutter too but I bet it wouldn't be as much time as sharpening.
Fuel, oil, blades i would guess at least.
A scythe has of course to be kept clean and properly sharped (no grinding).
I would say that preperation doesn't make any meaningful difference so the other factors (noise, terrain etc.) are more important.
@@fwebe2871 most brushcutters use a plastic wire, not blades
@@soulflakes510 plus there are really solid electric ones now, so you don't even need to worry about fuel, oil, or engine maintenance, just battery charge. And they last a while, too.

- great exercise alternative

yet another fine addition to my "algorithm strikes again" playlist
That's why the grim reaper still uses a scythe and not a bushwacker.
As someone who is proficient with both a scythe and a brush cutter, I can tell you the 2 instruments are not interchangeable and they have their role. Is nearly impossible to use a scythe on a heavy incline, like an embankment, or not a leveled area. On nice flat surfaces, small inclines, a scythe will beat a cutter any day. But on heavy inclines, I'll take the cutter.

Great job, scyther! The scythe is an awesome tool, & economical. Buy once, sharpen when needed; keep clean& dry. No expensive sting to buy, no motor to oil, etc. I'm wowed!
Seen these comps before, someone set up a much longer piece of grass to cut, the scythe cutter was knackered and it had to be sharpened to finish, he took many breaks and drank lots of water but didn’t give up, the brush cutter made it look easy, it was even funnier when the farmer in the next field starting cutting grass with his ride on mower. Good luck old tech, see you during the apocalypse
Great upper body exercise.

Nip around it, or use a sickle.
Using a lawnmower on a lawn full of rocks is a nightmare, I've seen people get shot in the stomach with rocks and have to be hospitalized. Damage to the scythe can be easily fixed but getting Donut from a lawnmower is another matter.
On flat ground like this, a scythe is a beautiful tool. However a brush cutter isn’t meant for this. It’s meant for brush, small spaces and uneven terrain. Throw in a few trees, a couple rocks and maybe a fence and the results would be completely different. A better comparison here would be either a push mower or a riding lawn mower, because those tools are meant to be used under these conditions.
The scythe is cheaper, lighter, doesn’t use gas and in this video the all around better tool (for this particular job).
So it is. But a lot of people dont understand it. A Ferrari had more HP then a Tractor. But you cant use it on a Field. Everything had his Sense. Sry for that English (im Bavarian😀)

There’s something so elegant in the rhythm and movement of scything.
By the end of the patch the scythe was beginning to lose sharpness and was starting to snag. This is why, in olden days, there would be one man in the cutting field whose job it was to sharpen scythes all day! Usually with a whet stone.

Watching folks cut grass can be entertaining
Scythe guy walks like he's a zombie wielding a deadly weapon
