For a practical tool avoid an old, antique American scythe- its a  
different animal from a European scythe.  A European-style scythe is  
a truly wonderful thing.  You'll find yourself looking for reasons to  
go scything.  Takes a bit of practice to get the rhythm of using one  
and to get the honing and peening technique, but not much.

Marugg, Scythe Supply and Scythe Connection are a few resources.
