Raking tool

Abstract

A raking tool comprises an elongated handle and a rake head mounted to a distal end of the handle. The rake head includes a support plate with a plurality of integral tines extending therefrom in mutually diverging directions between first and second edges laterally disposed relative to a longitudinal axis of the handle. The rake head is asymmetrically disposed relative to the handle, the first edge being substantially aligned with the longitudinal axis of the handle, the second edge being angularly disposed relative thereto. A first hand grip member is mounted at the proximal end of the handle and extends transversely thereof and a second hand grip member is mounted to the handle at a location spaced from the proximal end and extends in a direction angularly disposed relative to both the first hand grip member and the longitudinal axis. The support plate has a threaded mounting socket therein and the distal end of the handle is threaded for selective mounting engagement with the mounting socket.
