 * counter video showing it can be done with video explaining why it can't

Every issue that guy points out does not apply to Crescent Rose, or in fact most scythes used for weapons.

-oddly shaped shaft

Most weapon scythes have a modified straight shaft

-insubstantial blade

Thicker blade sharpened for combat use

-wrong blade angle

Blade mounted in line with shaft rather than angled to it

His comment about re mounting the blade outward? how it still isn't an effective weapon?

They work quite well, both against infantry AND mounted combatants



tl;dr: Scythes are excellent weapons, that guy is just an idiot who can't think outside the box (or look at historical evidence)
