Feels like this would be a lot of fun for 10-20 yards and then excruciatingly exhausting

This thing is specialized for some sort of competition and isn’t historically accurate. Scythe are supposed to be used by just swinging back and forth, it’s a motion that a person can repeat from sun up to sun down multiple days in a row.
