First of all, yes the kamas are scythes in the traditional sense ie. the farm implement.

However, the are some very good reasons that Kama and Dual Kamas are not in the Scythe category.

All weapons are placed into a category based upon the attack motions that the weapon class uses and make sense for the weapon. Now the Scythe weapon category in Warframe is a the large 2-handed weapon and the Kama is a small 1-handed weapon. This means that none of the attack motions used by Scythes would work properly with the Kama let alone the Dual Kamas. So, the Kama is put into the Machete category because the motions make more sense for how you would use a Kama in combat and Dual Kamas are in Dual Swords for the same reason.

Conclusion, they aren't in the Scythe category beacuse the motions would make absolutely no sense for the weapons.
