History
The Scythe is an ancient farming tool, with a thin, long blade, these tools were used for cutting fields of grass. While war scythes did exist, the blades were attached to the top at a 0° angle, as opposed to the 90° angle of a scythe proper. While they could be used as weapons the blades were normally too thin to be used effectively. Historical scythes had much more curved handles that the ingame counterpart.
