Need a
sharpen sir!
Came across this image of two people sharpening a sickle.
Unsure of the date, but it appears to be old, has the
name "Daniel Witchell" on the back.
I suspect the trough should be full of water.
Looks to have a piece of string holding his trousers up-
round his neck. Not sure of its origin.
