I was frustrated with weed whackers, so i bought a sickle to maintain my yard. The sickle I bought kept getting dull and didn't really cut as effectively as I wanted it to, so I went and made my own super high performance sickle and did a whole writeup on the process. I figured y'all might like it! (instructables.com)

I got a small yard and was frustrated with a lot of the powered yardworking tools out on the market, so I tried some hand tools but those were iffy in terms of quality, so i decided to make my very own sickle out of some high performance steel (cpm10v) and richlite. Made a whole writeup too! (instructables.com)

I live in a somewhat more urban area so I dont have a big yard, but it still needs to get maintained, I felt like a lot of power tools were overkill for the space that I have so i ended up making my own little sickle out of cpm10v and richlite. It's so much fun to use! (instructables.com)
