How about a hand scythe for the herbalists/gatherers out there?
Not sure if the smaller single-hand scythe has a different name, but it would be nice to have one while out gathering blueberries, chantrelles, spindley taproot, stinging nettles, blood stern, inkweek, rustroot, cave bulbs, etc. (holding out for more to come). With more and more of these options making it into the game, this is starting to be a viable profession and I actually enjoy donning a sprucecap and going on a walkabout.
