Kinda my thoughts, that's a 30 minutes breakdown if you have parts on hand, we always kept a few splices on hand for cases like that

I had no parts and sunday.


Always carry a splice kit. Always.

I prefer the double drive on a draper. In down wet rice it is the only thing that will effectively go through it unless you have a Isbell bar setup and even then I would still want a double knife.

If you buy a draper, carry a belt splice kit in your service truck. Invaluable when you need it and they are cheap compared to a new belt or trying to zip tie or glue a belt back together.

I might now but it's the first sickle I've broken in 20 years. Not something I've thought about. I've got a pile of other crap but not that.
