Rakes. Who's using what.

[Simon Rotheram]

I'm in need of a new rake, my old ones getting a bit long in the tooth. I was wondering what makes people were using.

 

Many thanks,

 

Martin

 

Surely older rakes get shorter in the tooth?...

 

We use Chelwood 32LP's pretty good all round!

needed one in a rush 2wks ago, got 1 from a garden centre while collecting some trees, it broke on the first pull..handle was peppered with holes from some kind of woodworm.. under the nice paintjob, fitted it with a spare handle i had and it works fine now, wide plastic head, think it was £7.50 minus the discount
