Fux Austria & Schröckenfux Scythe Forge

The manufacturer Fux Austria & Schröckenfux from the Kremstal region of Austria is one of the last remaining scythe forges in Europe. For over 450 years, carbon steel blanks have been forged there in numerous stages into elegantly curved scythes and sickle blades.

In 1540, the Franz de Paul Schröckenfux scythe factory was founded on the Pießlingbach stream. This factory is now one of the oldest industrial enterprises in Upper Austria. At the founding of the scythe forge, the master craftsmen and their journeymen used hand hammers to work the glowing iron into scythes.

In the 16th century, it was courageous and forward-thinking factory owners at Schröckenfux who set about building water-powered hammers in Roßleithen. The powerful blow of the water hammer allowed for the production of a better, more uniform scythe blade than was possible through laborious hand-forging.

Products from Fux Austria, as Schröckenfux is also known today, are characterized by their durability, precision, and excellent workmanship. Garten-Geschenke has been the distribution partner of the scythe forge Schröckenfux for Germany for many years.
