ABSTRACT:
A device having combined features of a glove and a garden tool is disclosed. The device includes a glove element having a bar grip installed therein, with a tool element attached to the bar grip. In one embodiment, a horizontal bar grip is employed in conjunction with a tool element having forks or tines, such as a rake. In a second embodiment, a vertical bar grip is employed in conjunction with a tool element which has the form of a scoop or spade. An additional feature includes the attachment of a bracket on the upper, forward portion of the glove element to receive a second tool element which is detachably connected thereto. Alternatively, a bracket for receiving a second tool element may be affixed directly to the shaft of the main fixed tool element. Also, a threaded connection may be employed for attachment of the tool element which is connected directly to the bar grip. The bar grip may be provided with grooves or ridges to allow the bar to be gripped more firmly.
