I had figured you can't block with it because it's a farm tool, not actually intended to be used as a weapon, so it wouldn't be built as sturdy.

Plenty of farming weapons were used on the battlefield. Most soldiers were just farmers forced into battle by their lords. No reason to assume a sickle wouldn't be sturdy enough to block a hit.

Great news!  :P

Also nice, would allow me to make a character focussed on these medieval combat styles(among others):
