We had a sickle grinder. Kind of like a swing saw. When I was 8 or 9 I had to start grinding sickle bars. The old AC mower that was on the JD was a little more complex to pull the sickle. On the JD we had to pull a pin. I don't remember how the sickle on the IH mower unhoooked. I liked t

Yep. I did that mostly with the JD H and 7' sickle, and then the 2020 with a 9' sickle bar and some with the IH 240., again with a 7' sickle. I don't miss changing sickle bars and changing the sickles on the bar. But you can do things with a sickle bar mower that you can't come close to with
