Looking for a scythe?
Scythe Works has a complete offering of European-style Scythes outfits and all needed accessories.
Scythe Works is operating out of Victoria, BC, Canada since 2007.
At ScytheWorks, personal service has always been an essential part of my scythe-business activities. Providing proper fit and function is the primary goal. Every scythe outfit ordered from ScytheWorks is custom-fitted for the user’s height, with extra attention given to the optimal pairing of blade and snath. All products are carefully inspected before shipment.
Tariff Update for my U.S. Customers:
The United States has suspended its duty-free “de minimis” threshold of US$800 for all countries, including Canada. Starting August 29, 2025, all shipments entering the U.S. must have duties prepaid before crossing the border – regardless of their value.
This change, mandated under U.S. Executive Order 14324, applies to all business shipments from Canada, whether sent through the postal system, a Canadian courier, freight provider, or any commercial channel.
Goods valued at US$800 or less that are shipped to the United States through the postal network will be subject to an ad valorem duty. This duty will be equal to the effective tariff rate applicable to the product’s country of origin under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA). For Canada, the current IEEPA rate is 35% for most goods.
Until further details are worked out, I need to collect a duty of 35% for all goods I ship to the US.
ScytheWorks is a one-man operation. Usually, I start working on your outfit within a few days. However, it will take longer during a busy summer season before I get to the order.
I’m working on the orders in the sequence I’ve received them. Once the package is sent, you’ll receive the tracking number from Canada Post.
I ask my customers to take the time to inform themselves about what they might need. There is good material posted in The Big Book of the Scythe for everyone to make tentative choices of what they might need, and then I don’t mind giving feedback if necessary.
