Scythe (Checkley HR1)

I've got disillusioned with my strimmer and found an old-fashioned sickle to be much more effective against weeds and long grass. A scythe would be even better, but the modern ones you buy have rather short handles. Does anyone have a proper, Grim Reaper scythe rusting in the shed? Thanks (I am 54 years old and not a psychopath).
