Scythe courses and supply

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. 

I run scythe courses for individuals and groups.

Whilst I am delighted to welcome all to my courses there may be a scythe tutor nearer to you.

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.
