Default Traditional Tools

Hi,
Can anyone reccomend supplier of traditional tools such as scythes.
Cheers,
Doug


Any country town will have a branch of the local farmers' co-op, or
some such firm as ACT (Agricultural Central Trading). Yellow pages
will find them.

If you're round that way, in Reading and Swindon there's a wonderful
firm called Sarjent's Tools. For those who like tools, their
woodworking catalogue was/is practically pornography. I mean, Japanese
saws and gouges, completely naked and in tempting poses: phwoar!
