Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. A war scythe is a kind of improvised pole weapon, similar to a fauchard, usually created from standard scythes. The blade of the scythe is transformed so as to extend upright from the pole, thus forming an infantry weapon practical both in offensive actions against infantry and as a defensive measure against enemy cavalry.The scythe, a farming tool, could be easily transformed into an effective infantry weapon. They were a popular weapon of choice and opportunity of many peasant uprisings throughout history. To name just a few examples, ancient Greek historian, Xenophon, describes in his work (Anabasis) the chariots of Cyrus the Younger which used scythes. Polish peasants used war scythes during the 17th century Swedish invasion (The Deluge).
