* New stock has arrived!
So nice to feel the world warming up again and grass is growing again the summer season is coming.
The new stock has arrived.
I will be processing the back orders over the next few days and have a few to do and am working as quickly as I can, hopefully we can have you ready to go soon.
Thankyou for your patience.
We are looking forward to starting our summer workshops again and getting out and about meeting and mowing with fellow scythers.
Ross will be up in the Hamilton area 12th October so if that your area and you are keen to meet up we can send you some details.
It is our goal to nurture the scything community in NZ, share knowledge and skills and promote this amazing tool and all its potential to play a part in supporting us as we care for the land that we call home.

This tool of the past is fast becoming the tool of the future.
All over the world people are turning away from the noisy, fuel burning weedeaters and lawnmowers and taking up the scythe.
Faster than a weedeater and less cost to buy and run, the scythe is healthier for your body, your mind, and the Planet.
The Schroeckenfux factory in Austria have been making scythes since 1540 and now I have them available to buy, brand new here in New Zealand.
I have everything you need to get you mowing
- Blades for trimming for around the tricky bits, to full size field blades for bringing in the hay and options for the heavier clearing and blackberries etc.
- Wooden Snaths (handles) made of Swiss ash are available in three sizes, Metal snaths for heavier jobs in two sizes.
- A full range of sharpening options to suit your mowing needs and skill set.
We also can help out with on-going instruction and advice and permanent contact with the greater world of scything.
(Yes I know that the photo on the left is still Ross. He is still part of ScythesNZ and we are still benefiting from his years of hard work supporting the community so he will stay there for a bit longer. Cheers Ross)
