    I feel like this is more of an axe. Don't get me wrong, it's a very cool weapon and the process to make one is incredible. I just think that with the bladed edge being on the outside of the curve, this would be used more like an axe. A scythe cuts on the inside of the curve to pull grass(or a person in the case of a war scythe) towards the cutting edge, like a sickle. With this, you have to cut with the outside of the curve, making it more similar to an axe blade for chopping, not hooking.

      Yes, the epoxy alone isn't enough to hold the blade in place to the handle. Adding a mechanical component prevents the blade from wiggling in any air pockets within the epoxy which could, over a long enough period of use, cause the epoxy to loosen its hold for the metal and the wood.
