Guesses at some reasons * Scythes need to be sharp, a machete will work even when poorly maintained. * Machetes are cheaper to make. * Machetes are easier to use * Scythes are a specialized tool, where as I can buy a machete for ten dollars at Canadian Tire. Economics of scale are different. > There are still several remaining scythe factories in the world.
