now i've never used a sickle in my life but every time i see the Chinese hammer & sickle, i think: that's a really impractical handle on that sickle.

every other hamsic has a decent rectangular handle, but the CPC just has a little nub. what gives

[–] LarkinDePark@lemmygrad.ml 24 points 10 months ago (1 children)

The handle is normal size. It's just a really big sickle made of a space age lightweight material to be more efficient.

comically large sickle

I’m glad I’m not the only one who thought that.

But I bet it’s super easy to draw.

Yup, but visually it looks really nice

No, not really. As someone who not only saw but actually used sickle it rubs me wrong each time i see it.
