along tree trunks, stones, fences and roadsides. The grass whip consists of
a thin blade (approx. 20-25 cm), serrated on both sides (1) or provided
with a cut on both sides and front (2). The handle is covered with wood or
rubber. The tool is swung back and forth in front of the feet, with the
blade lying parallel to the ground, cutting through the thin grass stems.
