Old Push-Type Sickle Mower
I enjoyed reading the story in your last issue about the walk-behind, ground-driven sickle mower that’s designed to cut grass, grain crops and even brambles and light brush. The story says it’s the first man-powered sickle mower on the market. However, we have an old push-type sickle mower out in our garage that we’ve had since 1965. It’s called the Lawn Mower Clipper. It mows 18 in. wide and was used to cut buckthorn on golf courses. It was patented in the early 1900’s. (Robin Byers, Pataskala, Ohio, cutiepiechick18@aol.com)
