What is chain scythe?

Chain scythe, also known as a chainblade or chainscythe, is a cutting tool that consists of a long chain equipped with sharp cutting blades. It is used mostly in forestry, landscaping, and agriculture for cutting grass, weed, bushes, and small trees. The chain scythe is powered by a gas or battery engine and can be handheld or mounted to a vehicle or equipment. The cutting chain spins rapidly around a metal guide bar, similar to a chainsaw, allowing for precise cutting of vegetation. Chain scythes are highly efficient and can cover large areas in a short amount of time, making them popular among professionals in the industry. However, they can be dangerous if not used properly and require the user to adhere to safety guidelines to prevent accidents.
