Sickles are hand-held agricultural tools used primarily for cutting grass, grain, and other crops. They consist of a curved blade attached to a handle, allowing for efficient cutting motion. Traditionally made from metal, sickles may feature wooden or plastic handles for improved grip and comfort during use.

A high-carbon steel blade offers durability and sharpness, while stainless steel is resistant to rust. Ensure the handle is comfortable for prolonged use.
