Does anyone know what company makes the rake that has one rectangular side and one serated side, and it has a yellow handle and its super light (prolly made of aluminum)...
does anyone know where i can find one?

i really don't like the ones made by snow park tools. they are way too heavy and i dont think they work well.

anyone that could help me out?!

I wish we had rakes lying around, our lips get really messed up, and I'd love to fix them.

the sporks are way way better than any landscaping rake out there.  they aren't that heavy, but the weight they do have is there for a reason.  the landscape rakes are too light and create yumps way too easily.  and the spork is anything you would ever need.  a landscape rake is a waste of space in an inventory....  you can't create dern near anything with a rake like you can with the spork, fill in ruts, etc.

ive discovered that planet snow rakes break pretty easily, but they work really well on mostly everything but moving larger amounts of snow (which landscaping rakes do pretty well). but they break easily on the welded part that connects the rake head to the handle. just rambling....
