Abstract: This invention relates to lawn rakes having detachable and replaceable tines, and particularly to an improved form of rake of the type having a channel like crosshead adapted to mount a handle and with spaced flanges that have opposed slots for receiving and detachably mounting resilient tines, wherein each slot is formed with a first profile and a second profile so that the slots can accommodate either one of two tines having different cross-sections. The second profile is preferably recessed into the flanges from the limits of the first profile and the tines complement the size and shape of the respective profiles.
