Rake adjustable between a right-handed and a left-handed position

摘要

A rake that can be adjusted between a right-handed position and a left-handed position is provided. The rake has a handle, and raking fingers forming a first raking fan and a second raking fan each having a raking edge. The raking fingers are pivotably attached to a crossbar that is pivotably attached to the handle. An actuator is provided allowing a user to pivot the crossbar relative to the handle, causing the raking fingers to move closer together on one side of the handle and to diverge on the other side of the handle, so as to provide a rake having one larger raking edge, and one smaller raking edge. Such a rake eliminates the inconvenience created by either the raking edge, or the leaves, passing over the user's feet during raking, while providing the ability to quickly adjust to right-handed or left-handed use.
