The video has a transcript available for the subtitles, which is translated below (poorly) by Google, with some minor editing. It says the factory makes around 200,000 scythe blades per year.
For over 500 years
: 18
here in scythe work in Rossleithen Austria
: 20
The more tools are passed by hand
: 23
made
: 26
every scythe takes its beginning as
: 29
inconspicuous runway
: 32
First, a machine cuts the
: 34
blanks cope the steel is one
: 37
Custom made the mix earlier
: 40
as well as a secret today
: 42
Finally, only high quality supplies
: 44
raw material succeeded
: 51
At the next machine poke
: 53
the future senses leaves her
55
first corners and edges off the rounding
: 58
is punched out
01:08
then feel the steel rods to the first
01:11
times hot in the production process
01:13
fire blood at least partially the
01:17
Worker takes the blanks out of the oven
01:19
and bends the hammel
01:21
that's the approach with the later the
01:23
scythe is attached to a stalk
01:26
finished is the so-called number of
01:29
blank
01:36
1200 degrees is the temperature in the
01:39
currently in forging
01:41
is being made smooth now is going out
01:48
The narrow steel strip is covered by the wide strip
01:51
send remains
02:01
until a grinder seals the power of the 270
02:05
kilo heavy hammers perfect
02:07
It takes a good five minutes to control
02:10
years
02:11
after all, it's not just about it
02:13
piece steel wide to knock
02:15
already here receives the leaf of the senses
02:18
its characteristic shape and strength
02:20
it must be less than a millimeter
02:22
be thin
02:26
you always have to stand still
02:29
evenly they are through
02:32
that one can do the wide saturday one way
02:36
we have the focus on that
02:39
travel remains otherwise broken and offers
02:41
So you have to bring praise
02:43
You must always be in motion that
02:45
then confirm that you always have to
02:47
exactly lead a trifle
02:50
Maintenance contract or what the hammer
02:53
out and there again about 1000 leaves
02:57
Forge them here daily but until
02:59
These are the first blades of grass
03:01
a lot of work is needed yet
03:07
it works with the mowing at all
03:09
it also requires the right technology
03:12
Serious shows probably are more teachers and
03:15
tests the sensors in practice and
03:18
while many are sensitive immediately
03:21
a steep allthough think back
03:23
Fans are racing flat on home soil
03:25
with it
03:26
provided you have the bow out
03:34
weeks that they take out the scythe
03:39
so far in the air lift
03:42
that is the driven but that's how it works
03:44
In addition to these immediately over he has it
03:47
the tip is purely in the ground
03:49
that is the most common mistake the ensi
03:52
when mowing it always stays on the ground
03:54
means it is hands on one drives
03:57
over and also during the recovery
03:59
if the ensi stays on the ground it is that way
04:02
no effort but meditation
04:05
[Music]
04:07
back in the sensor mountain after the
04:09
the leaves get their forge
04:11
move
04:12
It gives the sensation of tension and
04:14
stiffness with it nothing more
04:16
bends the men must be accurate
04:21
Pay attention to when they are out of the senses
04:23
To take the oven, the steel is light
04:26
Kirchroth has to come out and work
04:28
become
04:32
then the leaves become
04:34
tailored to lend the employee
04:37
give them breadth and form just by
04:39
experience and judgment
04:41
over 100 different sensor types
04:44
Make the factory work for everyone
04:47
reset the eye
04:48
there are almost no stencils
04:52
[Music]
04:55
at the next markets
04:57
the senses the trademark
05:08
after all, they are the last and
05:10
at the same time the most important walk through the fire
05:12
before getting in the hardening shop
05:17
sense necessary tenacity and cut
05:19
strength the secret consists in it
05:24
you at the right time from the oven
05:27
to take
05:28
then they are dipped in oil and very much
05:31
cooled quickly
05:42
when the leaves leave the bath
05:44
they are still too hard under load
05:47
they would jump like glass
05:52
for the right elasticity provides the
05:55
electric stimulus call
05:58
After that, you must submit your quality
06:00
evidence
06:03
I'm checking rigidity now
06:06
and the tenacity of being with it
06:09
also has the pressure
06:12
[Music]
06:20
so you can say she is alright
06:21
almost belonged to the ability
06:23
one can enjoy the enjoyment
06:26
not a good ending
06:32
with that change the leaves of the
06:34
Hot treatment of the so-called gray
06:37
work to the cold the blue lawyer behind
06:41
The sandblasting will be the senses
06:43
polished and then polished
06:46
really sharp
06:52
in case of defects, the scythes get theirs
06:54
cutting edge
06:55
[Music]
07:01
then it goes to clean with high
07:04
speed the hammer hits
07:07
steel and never compacted it
07:09
this ensures more tension
07:19
at finishing demand the
07:22
muscle strength again and again
07:25
concentration of the blacksmiths by hand
07:30
the men had small vaults in
07:32
steel and correct the position
07:35
the leaves
07:41
The scythes are basically more finished
07:44
only a little color and shine are missing
07:47
the leaves are turned into lactate
07:50
it will be dipped in the future
07:52
protect
07:56
[Music]
08:01
around 200,000 senses per year are produced by the
08:05
Austrian school and supplies
08:07
Among other things, they go to the south and
08:09
north america and the middle east
08:14
[Music]
08:16
if they have arrived here then have
08:18
the show well over 40 working platform behind
08:21
Razor-sharp robust and hardly
08:27
destructible they are prepared for
08:29
their use on meadows and fields in
08:32
the whole world.
