Product Description

The Trake combination trowel and rake features two useful tools in one and a lengthy 17-inch handle so it can be used kneeling or sitting, eliminating extra bending. The angle of the handle provides leverage for digging or cultivating and the rake end is narrow enough to cultivate between crowded plants. Comfort thumb rest and ergonomic handle design works in both directions. Terradynamic trowel design penetrates soil easily. Non-slip vinyl coating on the shaft. Solid die-cast alloy can't rust bend or distort. 17-inch overall length.

Trake - I'll take ten May 9, 2006
By Karen Vasser
Amazon Verified Purchase
This is the best tool! I received it as a birthday gift, now I'm going to order 10 to give for presents. The length, balance, and leverage on this are perfect. That's not all - makes a great back scratcher too. This is the best garden tool I've ever used.

Neat Idea July 1, 2009
By Sojourner
Amazon Verified Purchase
I purchased this item based on the concept and the reviews. I thinks it's a unique tool. It is a little awkward for me, but I'm sure I'll get used to it with time.

Finally, a trowel that doesn't bend! July 15, 2007
By Cooks4Kix
This is the best garden tool you will ever own. I purchased my first one at Kohler Garden Center in Kohler, Wisconsin several years back and then they stopped carrying them. It took me a while to track down again, but am very glad that I was able to find on Amazon. Once you own one, you will want to give one to all of your gardening friends -- they will love you for it. I have given a couple as gifts and they always receive rave reviews. A great price too!
