Made a Generic Model instead of Java Model and Can't Import

Okay, so I just spend around 2-3 hours modeling and texturing a scythe I really like in Blockbench. However I ran into an issue at the end.

I made the model as a Generic Model because for java models, I cannot rotate cubes anywhere except on the 22.5 degree axis. This was an issue for me because the Scythe has a slight bend and I would not be able to make it properly with a Java model. When I tried to convert the model to a Java/Item model, the scythe got all messed up.

I already tried importing it as an OBJ model, however the model is too complex for that to work. 

Is there anything I can do to allow myself to save this model and use it in game??

Any help will be appreciated!

Sry but this model type doesnt 'support' custom rotation values.

It shouldn't be possible. You can only convert the project into a custom entity.
