Scythes (FFXI)  

Scythes, another category of two-handed weapons, primarily wielded by Dark Knights. Warriors, Beastmasters and Black Mages, can all also use these weapons with a varying degree of success.

They are high-damage, high delay weapons, that in the early levels are generally just used to put out steady damage numbers, as the skillchains they can create at low levels are not often used by parties.

Scythe weaponskills are largely single or double hit physical damage attacks, excepting Guillotine, a monstrous four-hitter.
This weaponskill is one of the more popular weapon skills amongst Dark Knights at higher levels, but is highly dependant upon accuracy.
