Try doing this with one hand!

Try doing this with one hand!

The local history association in Haninge had a thing today at the old alehouse in Västerhaninge. You could try this and that like using a traditional wooden scythe. This guy, Karl-Erik Eriksson makes baskets. Hes very good, I have seen him in action before. He told me that it was easy, and that he took it up after his father in law, who was a master at basketry despite only having one arm!
