Allen Sythe? ? ? ? ?

Jan 25, 2013 2 Replies

I am about to take on a very overgrown allotment.


Does anyone know if allen sythes are still available to hire?



I believe the "modern alternative" is the Flail Mower!



Any other advice welcome.



PS. I'm in Warwick.


Thanks in advance, Martin


Ive used a machine called a 'bushwacker', where years ago I might have used an allen scythe. It has a tough rotary blade and will clear most things and is readily available at hire outlets.

regards, Lannerman.

this sounds like a weed wacker with a metal blade. i have one here for small clearing jobs. works fine, not too expensive to buy outright if the price of rental is too high.
