Awesome pieces Michel! Thanks for posting these.
I wouldn't call all of them sickle though as many have a convex edge while the sickle has a concave one.

The Dacian falx and the Thracian Rhomphaia are additional examples of such weapons.

Here is also a Spanish sword supposedly used against cavalry that features convex and concave edges.
