INTRODUCTION

Somerset Scythe School is here to teach and promote the use of the truly wonderful tool that is the scythe.

Quieter, more efficient and easier to use than a strimmer, the scythe is making a comeback.

Rural or urban, gardens, wildflower meadows, verges, ditches and riverbanks, graveyards, woodlands, hills and marshes: the scythe can work well anywhere and everywhere. 

What's more it requires no fossil fuels, leaves no pollutants, makes (almost) no noise, it keeps you fit and it's great fun!

Age 7 to 87+ you can learn to use a scythe. 

NEWS

I’m  very  pleased  to  say  that  my  double  hip  replacement  surgery  was  successful  and I  am recuperating  very  well.


I  will  be  starting  up Scythe  School   again  in  April  with  a  Peening  Workshop  for  International  Peening  Day  on  Sunday  the  6th  April.  

No  set  charge  but  donations  are  invited.


I’m  running  a  half  day  Spring  Recap  session  on  Saturday  12th  April.  If  you’ve  done  a  beginners  course  before  but  feel  like  you  have  forgotten  everything  or  you’re  just  not  sure  where  to  start,  then  this  is  the  course  for  you.  

Cost  £50  per  person.


My  first  group  day  course  of  2025  is  currently  planned   to  be  on  the  last  weekend  of  April.  

Beginners  on  the  Saturday  26th,  Improvers  on  Sunday  27th.

Scythe Emporium (shop)

Buy a scythe. 

I am a UK distributor for scythes made by the Schröckenfux factory in Austria where they have been made since 1540. Austrian scythe blades are recognized around the world as being of the highest quality.

I have a range of blades in stock to cope with varying needs and snaths (handles) for users of almost any height.

I also stock a range of sharpening equipment and other accessories.

Please  note  that  I  am  not  able  to  send  snaths  by  mail  or  courier  due  to  package  length  restrictions.
