>farming tools as weapons
Cut this shit out
>>332039880
did you know that farmers developed martial arts systems around their tools because the royalty oftenly banned them from owning real weapons?
>>332040137
that never happened unless youre talking about china
>>332040137
interesting, what does hoe-style look like?
>>332040217
Ask your mom.

>this never happened
>except for that one time
>>332040272
but shes not a farmer?
>>332040272
This cheeky bastard...
>>332039880
Just give up anon. Counter productive, unfeasible, terrible, ridiculous fantasy weapons will always be a thing in video games. As stupid as it is.
>>332040137
Peasants would bring farm implements in wars in europe. They didn't have martial arts though.
>>332040376
She farmed this dick the other day though.
>>332040272
>>332040137
Cut that shit out, the manual provided for that was a manual written by a guy who basically wanted to write one for every possible bladed instrument.
It was never seriously considered or practiced or used. Especially because each home was basically required to have 1 sword.
>>332040527
The use of weaponry is martial arts, retard.
>>332040607
ummm how so?
>>332040137

>sharp things can't harm people
>>332040272
>>332040894
???
peasants were poor and that's why they used their farming tools as weapons when it came to war and self defense
>>332040906
Next you'll tell me Kendo isn't a martial art despite it involving a weapon.

>Martial arts are codified systems and traditions of combat practices, which are practiced for a variety of reasons: as self-defense, military and law enforcement applications; as competition, physical fitness, mental and spiritual development; as well as entertainment and the preservation of a nation's intangible cultural heritage.
>Although the term martial art has become associated with the fighting arts of eastern Asia, it originally referred to the combat systems of Europe as early as the 1550s. The term is derived from Latin, and means "arts of Mars", the Roman god of war.[1] Some authors have argued that fighting arts or fighting systems would be more appropriate on the basis that many martial arts were never "martial" in the sense of being used or created by professional warriors.

Let me swing a scythe at you and see what happens.
>>332040272

>>332041738
You wont be laughing when your Achilles tendon is sliced open.
>>332041525
Considering the way the blade is shaped, before you actualy make contact, they'd already have stabbed you with a sword or bashed your chest in with a hammer. Scythes aren't practical weapons.
>>332041525
okay, but don't complain when i riposte and slice your torso through with my tool of justice
>>332041820
if you dismounted the blade from the haft and made some sort of handle, it might make a half decent ultralight sabre against lightly/unarmored opponents
but it'd be a pain to wear unless you made a scabbard and useless against something like a gambeson
>>332041714
You're talking to more than one anon anyway. Your shitposting needs work
>>332041525
>Implying your fat arms could hold one.
The only thing swinging will be your mantits as you flail in autistic rage.
>>332039880
>what are tonfas
>what are kamas
Op BTFO
>>332041820
but anon, you're an impractical tool as well
the difference is, people actually have a use for scythes
>>332040272
>>332041820
Farmers used them though. Mainly against other farmers.
More like get stabbed by a pitchfork while swinging it.
>>332040384
Hello.
>>332039880
Maybe you're just farming with weapons anon, ever thought of that?
>>332041820
>>332041895
>>332041964
Y'all don't even know that I can cut wheat and feet. Swords can't even feed a family, step your game up nigga.
>>332041820
Don't think of it like you're going to charge into a clusterfuck with your scythe and come out a hero, think of it as "oh shit some nigger is pillaging your shit, hide around a corner and swing for his head when he comes around."
>>332039880
Tell that to ancient China and Japan not on the internet see what happens
>>332041606
Low maintenance, good exercise, no fuel needed.
I've never seen one in use and I am pretty impressed.
I'd still rather use a lawnmower.
>>332041306
actually some farmer weapons served as a role model for real weapons you take to war if I'm not mistaken

>>332042620
there are a lot of them but scythes aren't very practical to convert to begin with
you basically have to replace everything to make them viable weapons, though that didn't seem to stop the poles in the 19th century
>>332042683
look at the way the blades are mounted on those
and then look at the OP or any agricultural scythe
>die
>spirit of death appears wielding a scythe
>lol what an impractical weapon
>what are you going to do sheer me?
>currently in hell
>>332042840
Then OP is fucking retarded,like always trying to come up with excuses cause MUH ANIME SCYTHES.
Atleast when plebs were forced to use them as weapons they reforged them to be halberd like weapons.
>>332042760
there is that sickle weapon you see a lot in anime but they say they don't know the origin of the weapon
it does look like a shorter peasant scythe with a weight attached to it
>>332042962
It's symbolic of the fact that he's reaping your dead ass with a tool designed to reap with.
>>332042962
Did you know that Death was only suppose to use the scythe for common folks because killing them was basically like harvesting? He had a sword reserved for nobles.
Unless I'm wrong, in which case you can insult me
>>332040272
>>332043142
the kama?
they make more practical weapons than the western european style of scythe, plus the japanese didn't have as diverse of a cultural influence for equipment as the europeans did
>it does look like a shorter peasant scythe with a weight attached to it
sometimes i've seen them with weights on chains attached to the bottom of the haft
i have no idea how authentic that is though
>>332040272
>>332040272
>>332043142
IIRC kama are Okinawan weapons since they weren't allowed to have real weapons so they had to improvise. I could be wrong, but I think nunchuka are the same deal.
Scythes had their use in warfare by farmers that had nothing better than their tools, the blade was fixed paralel to the wooden shaft instead of perpendicular as per usual and it was used like a spear, farmers back then didnt know how to read but they were not retarded to try "mowing" enemies.
>>332039880
dude, what set is that?
>>332039880
no it's a video game and it looks cool fuck you
Whips make pretty assy weapons as well, but I want more of that shit in games.
