By the way, in the (unreliable) Pritzel, some folk names for Centaurea cyanus are "Sechel" and "Sichelblume". I'm not sure how sickles looked in 15th century and backwards, but usually a sickle blade is curved. Maybe there still was some "blade"-related folk name not attested in Pritzel, but I do not consider that very probable: I think that "Sichelblume" is not due to the shape of the leaves, but due to the fact that you encounter it when you are mowing.
