thought I'd post pics of my reaper sickle for my costume...
it's PVC with a plywood blade.. there is a slot cut in the pvc and the blade goes in it, 2 screws through the pvc on each side into the plywood secures and centers the blade. skull is a big lots $4 one with a slot cut in it... texture on the handle is liquid nails spread around with a finger and dabbed to make it ripply, painted with exterior latex paint.
