2 scythes with chains. Holding one in right hand and one with handletip planted in the ground behind me.
Sakon bio (ukon unmerged and not with me)

I step towards you and do a horizontal slash at your ribs from left to right.

As you swing your scythe at me, I move my own scythe to my right, pointing the bladed end of the shaft towards you and the blade itself to my left, seemingly moving to intercept your slash. At the last second, however, I change the angle of my 'interception' so that my scythe moves beneath yours, while I lean backwards with my upper-body, narrowly avoiding your slash. As your scythe passes me, I use your momentum against you, lifting my left leg upwards and pushing against the shaft of your scythe, preventing you from stopping its slashing motion and generally restraining your movements if you continue to hold onto your scythe. As I lift my leg, I grip my scythe with both hands, (my left hand being further up the shaft than my right) as I thrust it forwards into your abdomen, knocking the air out of you and surely causing you to halt any counter-measures you might've set into motion. As my scythe connects with your abdomen, I use my right hand to retract it a few centimeters while, simultaneously, I use my left hand to twist the shaft, causing the blade of my scythe to swipe up and hit you in the side of your head, causing you to loose focus and almost certainly inflicting a concussion.

As you stop my movement with your leg I see you grabbing your handle with both hands and expect an attack so I let go of the shaft and my right hand slides down to grab the chain attached to the handle. I jump back and pull the chain as I jump, dragging the scythe towards me and running the blade across your left leg, cutting it as it flies back to me where I catch it in my left hand and hold the chain in my right.

Just FYI; my left leg is currently in an almost 45 degree angle, pushing your scythe away.
By the way, you're confusing me with what scythe you pull the chain of and how you do it. You use your left scythe, aka, your left hand, to deliver a slash, which I dodge and press onwards with my left leg. Yet, now you state that you use your right arm to pull the chain of what I guess is your right scythe, to pull it back and cut me in the leg. But if your right scythe isn't behind my left leg, how would you damage me by pulling it back? And if you're talking about your left scythe, then the blade would've been pointing to your left and your initial slash wouldn't have been dangerous at all, which you, of course, would've stated as such a fact is quite important.
Do you let go of one scythe then?
Imma just play it safe, nevertheless.
____________________________________________

As your hand slides down towards the chain of your scythe and your body tenses in preparation for your jump, I, without retracting the leg itself, lowers my left leg into the ground with great speed, using it as a point of balance to lean forwards with my entire body, delivering a painful thrust to your abdomen. Since my scythe is already pointing forwards towards you, even if you do manage to initiate your jump, my thrust would have enough reach to connect, though not with as much power. I, of course, make sure to lover my head and not loose sight of the outstretched scythe that you were about to retract.

I'm only holding one, the other has its handle in the ground and is standing like a flag pole behind us so my right hand is free to grab the chain while the left was holding the handle.

As you kick me as I jump away and avoid the blade I land crouched down with the scythe landing next to me. I stand up and walk back a bit and grab the 2nd scythe and charge you, one weapon in each hand. I swing the left at you from my left to right at your knees and watch for your counter.

Yeah, I 'stabbed' you, I didn't kick you :p
______________________________________
Through your preparations, the only thing I've done is rearrange my stance slightly, making it easier for me to maneuver, but still pointing the scythe at you, having twisted the shaft so that the blade points upwards.
As you swing your scythe towards me, I take a small half-step backwards with my right foot, while I move my scythe in a downwards-going sideways angle to intercept yours. By using my scythe's higher position to my advantage, I slam the end of my shaft into the ground, stopping your scythe by capturing it at the point where your shaft and blade meets. While this would normally leave me open to a thrust, I use the curved angle of my scythe's blade to pole-vault forwards, seeting off with my left foot and focusing chakra into my feet to gain as much speed as possible. These two actions happen in a single, flowing motion. There is no pause between the slam and the jump, if you get my meaning.
This unexpected action should leave you quite open as I kick forward with my right leg. As I used my left leg to jump and since my right leg was slightly behind my left because of my half-step, my right leg would be in the ideal position to deliver a bone-crushing kick that connects with the soft spot right under your jab, effectively crushing your windpipe.
