Spoken like an old pro! This activity is what kept my Papa so sinewy, well into his late 70s. He could buy power tools but opted for manual classics on most occasions.

I had no idea how much i would enjoy it!

Or how efficient it is.

I got the short bush blade as well. Its what ive used to keep it all clear since we moved on to the property 3 years ago.

I researched manual old world tools before we moved. The scythe, and the japanese hand saws have seen the most use.

Yes. The satisfaction of those and the brute force required by the hand plow really kept him in his mind and powerful form imho. The satisfaction wrought and the deep sleep derived

from such rigorous activities sustained our land and this man.
