ABSTRACT:
A gardening tool has a straight handle and a tool head, such as a spade blade, gardening fork or weeding fork, pivoted to its lower end about a transverse axis, stops limiting the pivotal movement of the tool head in one direction beyond normal working position, aligned with the handle, and in the other direction beyond a second position at an obtuse angle to the handle. A spring biases the tool head to working position and a pedal at the lower part of the tool enables foot pressure to be applied to the tool head. A catch may be provided to hold the tool head releasably in its second position, and the tool head may be interchangeable with others.
