IMHO the coolest piece of equipment ever listed under an avatar was a swing blade with tape on the handle. It must have been taken down years ago. Who's was it? I liked it.

Darn! I thought people would line up to name the mad swing blader.
He had a nice machine.

I saw the title and thought it was a discussion on who owns and uses an actual swing blade. :unsure:

I do, and I love it! Use it for "mowing" a steep slope. Its faster and lighter than my 2-stroke trimmer. And doesn't get plugged up. ;)

I guess the actual term for what I have is a scythe. But... terminology. :rolleyes:

2Lane,
As I remember, this was one of the items listed where the make of his tractor was supposed to go. (Yours shows a John Deere LX172). Some of us list the latest tractors, some list classic tractors and this guy listed his swing blade. I liked his humor and now that I've gotten to know some of the personalities here, wanted to match the swing blade to the owner.

I'm going to jab this question to the top one more time before giving up. The swing blade is kind of stuck in my head.
