A digging tool system provides a combination pickaxe and shovel superior to other digging tools in that it effectively allows a user to both break apart dense or impacted material and to move the material with a single tool. The digging device includes a digging head with a generally triangular blade which is capable of penetrating and moving substrate. The blade has a vertically and horizontally curved face, with a greater depth of curve on one side of the horizontal curvature, and a substrate-piercing tip formed by the apex of the blade which is positioned off-center relative to a handle. The greater depth on one side and the off-center placement of the substrate-piercing tip allow for material to be moved to one side as the digging device is pulled through the material.

The present invention relates to a handheld tilling device. The device can be used to till small garden beds via a handheld, motorized device. The device is primarily comprised of at least one handle, at least one leveling plate, at least one blade, and at least one motor. During use, the device can be used in a handheld manner to till the soil in row-like patterns.

A coupling for an elongated handle and a tool head is disclosed. The coupling includes a plug member, a ferrule, and a pin member. The plug member further comprises an elongated passage formed therein receives a tool head shank of the tool head. The elongated passage is in communication with a pair of aligned plug member openings formed through the plug member. The ferrule includes a pair of aligned ferrule openings. When the plug member is partially received within the ferrule, the plug member openings align with the ferrule openings. The pin member extends through the aligned ferrule openings and the plug member openings and through an opening of the tool head shank when the tool head shank is mounted in the elongated passage. The ends of the pin member are bent at an angle to an axis extending through the elongated passage to secure the tool head shank to the plug member and ferrule.

A soil conserving shovel and grate attachment that aid a user in removing and reclaiming soil from a recently removed plant by abrading the plant's rootball back and forth against the shovel and apparatus. In addition, methods of using a shovel and grate attachment instruct a user how to efficiently reclaim soil from a plant rootball. Also described is a method of manufacturing a shovel or grate attachment that can be used for rootball thinning,

Multi-use tools are described. According to one aspect of the invention, a tool includes a chevron-shaped body, and a coupling mechanism configured to couple a handle to the chevron-shaped body. According to another aspect of the invention, a tool including a chevron-shaped body comprising a first external edge, a second external edge, a first internal edge, and a second internal edge. The tool also includes a handle, a coupling mechanism demountably coupling the handle to the chevron-shaped body and a void formed by the first internal edge, the second internal edge, and the coupling mechanism. An apex of the chevron-shaped body points away from the handle.

A gardening tool is described comprising a base having a substantially flat plate with a face surface and a back surface; and one or more tines connected to and extending substantially perpendicular to a horizontal plane of the face surface of the flat plate. In some embodiments, the base of the tool is formed into a crescent shape.

A hand held tool for gardens, landscapes and the like; comprising a handle, and a tool head. The tool head is formed from a flat blade that has tapers and is bent in substantially a J shape that is beveled along a portion of its edges. The open end of the J has a beveled tip, preferably containing a center notch. The bent, closed portion of the J shape is beveled at least 50% and forms a heel. The short leg of the J forms a flange, which is preferably not beveled and provides an area for attaching the tool head to the handle, preferably via a tang. The blade width is generally four or more times wider than the thickness of the blade material.
