An interesting video. A lot of farmers in Aus and around the world, had sheep ,horses goats that made the grass around the house like a lawn, just from the animals... As for that sythe lawn cutting. In Papua New Guinea, that had a system of a mini sythe, you just swung and cut grass with a sharp 4 inch section at the bottom. Still used today for clearing small weeds, but could cut a lawn.. Certainly easier that a proper sythe. cheers speedy
