I keep searching and using effective cutting tools for grass cutting. I have been using Scythe for long time, but now in lots of places, I have fodder grass which is bit difficult to cut with Scythe since it is very thick and strong at the base, also it is like a bunch and hence cutting with Scythe becomes bit tedious. Recently visited a tools shop in Kulappully,Shornur,Palakkad and they had a grass cutting sickle. Long handle around 2 feet and they make it from leafes of vehicles and hence they say it is very sharp and retains it.
2nd one from bottom is a very good tool, it is light weight and very sharp and hence ideal for cutting fodder grass, only issue is that if there are thicker bushes and if you cut it using this one, it may get damaged. Once one piece of it just went off, while cutting a thicker one.
This tool is ideal for clearing pathways and small grass.

Measured weight of these , top one is lightest 350gms,next 400gms and next 450gms. Weights make lot of difference 300-350gms should be the ideal weight. It can be used very comfortably, even quickly changing direction of cutting, I didn't feel comfortable with 400gms one.
