Albanian scythesman Ded Kalaj was a surprise entrant, and ultimately champion, of the 2011 Eastern counties Scything competition held at Wimpole Hall near Cambridge. As a young man in his home country Ded mowed acres of grass every year. He demonstrated differences in technique of mowing and sharpening compared with that currently used in the UK (adopted from Austria). He borrowed a 75cm luxor blade for the competition as his own blade had been confiscated by Gatwick customs as an offensive weapon!
