Product Information

I needed a strong rake to weed a garden bed that had become overgrown with grass and assorted weeds,” wrote a customer. “This rake was perfect for the job and also great to spread mulch once the weeds were raked out.” Another added, “This rake will outlast me!” Specifications In 2007 WOLF-Garten was distinguished as "Brand of the Century".

WOLF-Garten - Passion & Competence A great bow rake doesn’t need to cost a fortune, as proven by this Blue Hawk version. A cushion grip is wrapped around the rake’s handle and the tempered steel rake head is capable of loosening up dirt without excessive strain, especially since the rake is only 2.6 pounds. It’s also a solid choice for dethatching lawns on a budget or vine removal. There is a five-year limited lifetime warranty on it as well. While a wooden handle is one of the most popular options for rake handles, fiberglass and metal are also durable materials and some bow rake models are now available in adjustable lengths with steel or aluminum handles. Bow Rake Uses A bow rake often has a steel head and a wooden, metal, or fiberglass handle. The metal tines of a proper bow rake are much shorter than that of a leaf rake and are straight (though some models come with curved tines), which contributes to a strong and sturdy tool. It’s a versatile rake that can do more than what it’s meant for and hardier tasks won’t ruin its durable construction.

A bow rake is shaped very differently from your average leaf rake. The tines are short, only a few inches (8 cm.) long, and they are parallel to each other, setting them apart from the fanning shape of a leaf rake’s tines. The tines are perpendicular to the long, straight handle. They are strong and rigid, usually made of metal. I was a little apprehensive about this having a multi-section aluminum handle, but once it is assembled, it is surprisingly strong,” wrote a customer. Another also described, “The head of the rake looks sturdy and so far rakes through my challenging fields.” Specifications With its steel ferrule, forged steel tines, and fiberglass handle, this rakefrom Tabor Tools is fit for staying outdoors. The rake features a coated handle that won’t damage as easily as a wooden one or rust like a steel rake can and its bright color makes it hard to lose. Its strong construction makes it a suitable tool for raking stones or root-laden soil.
