ABSTRACT:
A household tool for gathering and picking material comprising two rake head and handle units arranged side by side with both rake heads arranged in substantially the same plane for raking. The units are temporarily held in this position by several possible fasteners along the length of the units. One version is joined at a pivoting joint that allows each of the units to separately pivot about its own longitudinal axis so that their undersides are substantially facing each other and to swing opposite each other for picking. Another version allows both units to be completely disconnected when in the pick-up mode. The handle lengths can be adjustable and can be extended for raking and retracted for picking. Each rake unit may have a fixed or adjustable hand grip or arm grip for less fatigue when picking. The rake heads may overlap to provide more picking-up capacity and more stability to the components.
