Sickle Bending Grass Cutter Knife

Curved Hand Sickle for Grass, Weeds & Crops

This bending grass cutter knife is a traditional curved hand sickle for cutting grass, weeds, crops and other soft growth. The hooked steel blade lets you gather a handful of grass and slice through it in one pull, which makes it handy for jobs a mower or trimmer can't reach, like clearing along fences, edges, garden beds and around trees. It comes with a wooden handle for a comfortable, natural grip.

Design & Build

The blade is made from carbon steel and curves into a hook shape, with a socket at the base that fits onto the wooden handle. The curve is the key to how a sickle works: it draws the grass in towards the blade as you pull, so you cut with a slicing action rather than hacking. The painted spine adds a bit of protection to the back of the blade, and the wooden handle keeps it light and easy to swing.

Uses

Use it to cut long grass and weeds, trim around obstacles, harvest crops and clear overgrown patches by hand. It's a good tool for spots where a powered trimmer is awkward or where you want more control, and it's a quiet, no-fuss option for smaller clearing jobs and hand harvesting.

Care & Safety

The blade is sharp, so handle and store it with care and keep it away from children. Cut with the blade moving away from your body and keep your free hand clear of the cutting arc. After use, wipe the blade clean and dry, and a light coat of oil will help protect the carbon steel from rust. Keep the edge sharp with a sharpening stone for the cleanest, safest cutting.
