Important: Only select this service for scythes with a length of 35cm to 75cm! Essentially, all scythes we sell are pre-peened by machine multiple times and coated with anti-rust lacquer. With this optional service, the scythe becomes even sharper and is particularly well-suited for young and green grass. We perform the following work steps: The anti-rust lacquer is removed from the cutting edge area by grinding. The cutting edge is professionally and uniformly thin-peened by hand. Even if new scythe blades are labeled "ready to mow" (whether ours or from other brands), they only truly become ready after the anti-rust lacquer has been removed.
Whetstone from the Austrian Gosau Valley. This sedimentary rock is soft and features a medium-fine grit. When sharpening, this combination of material properties quickly produces a sharp, long-lasting edge. The perfect whetstone for our peened scythes. The material removal rate is slightly higher compared to the Rozsutec whetstone. Optimal sharpening results are achieved only when the stone is wet and regularly dipped in water. With a length of 26 cm, the stone is well-suited for larger hands.
The hard steel scythe is an all-around scythe and represents a lightweight alternative to the red meadow, weed, and culture scythe. The advantage of this scythe is that it stays sharp longer due to the hard steel. A disadvantage is that it is harder to peen. However, this can be avoided by carefully (!) grinding the scythe with a flap disc.
The popular whetstone is a natural product from Italy with a medium-fine grain. It is suitable for sharpening scythes with a fine edge. The natural stone features a fine, uniform grain and very high wear resistance. Each whetstone should be moistened with water before use to allow the grain to work optimally.
