A rake may have a spade implement disposed adjacent to the tines. The spade implement may have a thin or sharpened edge and may have a convex edge running from the top to the bottom to facilitate the spade implement cutting portions of plants or of cutting into the ground to facilitate the removal of plants, rocks, etc. The spade implement may be welded or otherwise attached to one of the tines of the rake head, or may be formed integrally therewith.
