Bladeedge5 and The pathogen.. you're both wrong. They are not the same. The key difference is in the shape of the blade. There are weapon forms of both, there are polearm and single handheld versions of Scythes. In fact in ninjitsu the "Kama" that you see attached to a chain with a kunai on the other end is a type of scythe as well. There are single handed farming scythes and polearm scythes for cutting grain and grass.

Remember the Russian flag? Hammer and Sickle is the name of the symbol. A sickle's blade is curved more tightly and is shaped like a C often with a point at the top like a shotel except that the blade is on the inside instead of the outside.

Scythe blades are either short or long and shaped in an arc.
