For Harvesting Grain Crops Or Cutting Grass
The Chillington Sickle is another great tool made by the famous 'Chillington' traditional tool brand. The sickle is one of the most ancient of tools used for cutting grain crops or grass to feed livestock.
In the modern environment the sickle is a very handy tool for light hedge trimming or for clearing grass around the base of vulnerable plants. It's a light and easy to transport tool so very perfect for bringing down the allotment for light clearing instead of lugging round a heavy petrol strimmer. It really is a great tool to have around and will be used far more than you'd think!
This sickle has the more popular serrated edge and makes short work of weeding or harvesting.

I can only give this 4 stars at the moment because I haven't used it on really tough grass or weeds. However so far it seems pretty good A lot lighter than I expected. Good for clearing around the base of tree saplings where a strimmer would risk damaging the tender bark.

5 A pleasure to use
I purchased this for the autumn cut of our mini wildflower meadow. It's a pleasure to use. It made short work of the grass, and is precise. Build quality feels great.

When it arrived it was smaller and lighter than I imagined so I was automatically sceptical and almost wished I had not bought it ... BUT, that was until I started using it. That small serrated blade is a shark! It does not take long to settle into a rhythmic swing that slices through all you need to cut back with ease. With its lightness it does not get tiring to use either. Don't be fooled by its small size and flimsy look. This is a powerful 'gets the work done' hard wearing tool. Don't look at it, just use it, and be thrilled at its excellent value for money and usefulness.
