Schröckenfux Competition Blades (100cm -135cm)

Price range: £120.00 through £168.50

We have occasional requests for long “competition” blades.

Schröckenfux have a small number of blades in stock from 100cm -135cm. Blades can be pre-ordered to arrive with our next delivery.

These blades are not for beginners!

Scything experience is needed to get a long blade set up and mowing well. You need to know (or be prepared to learn) how to make or modify snaths, modify tangs, finesse blade set up and be practiced at peening and mowing.

We are offering the full range of lengths that SF currently have in stock, but you need to use your own judgement about what length you might be able to get mowing. Note, we have never seen a blade longer then 125cm in use.

Pre-order by 15th June for delivery in July

 

Description

This blade is suitable for the experienced mower to use on large lawns or for early hay making. Or for taking part in scythe competitions!

Longer blades allow you to cut more with each pass of the blade but require good technical skill from the scyther, both when scything and in scythe set-up and peening / sharpening.

Don’t assume the longest blades will be the best. At these extremes, a relatively small increase in length of the blade makes a large difference in how it handles and mows.

We are offering the full range of lengths that SF currently have in stock but this does not mean we recommend any in particular, especially the very long lengths. We have never seen a blade longer then 125cm in use. Use your own judgement about what you might be able to get mowing.
