Those don't look like they have wooden handles. If you haven't already, you should try using sickles with wooden handles to see how the experience is different.
In truth, we practise the ancient and medieval combat according to the principles of experimental archaeology. We do not copy any source, we practise in the manner which seems to us most plausible, of optimizing the body and the weapon (for example: for the scraping-knife or the sickle, the double keys are frequent, then the goal is to close itself to optimize the defence, to strike which exceeds or to sacrifice a part fleshy to neutralize the adversary.)

The handles are in wood covered with fabric, they are not round but punts, here there can be a difference

Thank you for the video reply. Are you actually using Mair's text when you practice the Sickle? Or are you learning from a different source?

It is necessary to then test then to compare with the source (not the reverse)
It is the case for your video, one has to practise and then one has to compare with your video (sources which I did not know front, so thank you).
