Multipurpose utility attachment device
A multipurpose utility attachment device for equipping a variety of tools to an adjustable shaft includes a grip. The grip is a handle and has a flat end. A telescopic shaft comprises a first portion, a second portion, and a pair of spring pins. A proximal end of the first portion is coupled to the flat end of the grip. The second portion is nested within the first portion. The second portion can adjust the length of the telescopic shaft by moving within the first portion. A pair of spring pins is positioned within the second portion and secures the second portion in a fixed length relative to the first portion. A second spring pin is used for securing a utility attachment to the telescopic shaft. The utility attachment can be a variety of wilderness survival tools. A hammock attachment can be used by a pair of telescopic shafts.
GARDEN IMPLEMENT
Aspects of the disclosure relate to a garden implement that includes a handle, at least one tool member having a pair of flanges extending therefrom, each flange includes a flange bore and a pinion segment that share a common center, the pair of flanges have opposing parallel surfaces that each include the pinion segment, the opposing parallel flange surfaces are spaced apart by a first distance. Also included is at least a first fixing member coupled between the pair of flanges and the handle. The first fixing member includes a boss projecting along a longitudinal axis, the boss has parallel surfaces spaced apart by the first distance, a boss bore, and a curved rack segment projecting from the boss and configured to mesh with at least a portion of the pinion segment. Also included is a fixing shaft insertably received in at least one flange bore and the boss bore.
360 degree landscaping tool
A landscaping tool comprising a disc rotatably attached to an attachment end of an arm. The disc comprises a sharp edge, allowing for cutting, breaking, severing, etc. of various landscape features during lateral and rotational movement of the disc. The arm further comprises a handle and an angled section. The handle allows a user to grasp the arm and swing or otherwise control the arm and disc. The angled section of the arm creates an ideal angle between the disc and arm, allowing for most effective use of the invention for cutting and other landscaping purposes.

Snow oar for manually clearing snow and ice
An implement for manually clearing snow, slush, or ice comprises an elongated handle and relatively narrow, shallowly curved blade and can permit a standing stationary operator to drive or otherwise draw the front face of the blade more or less face-on into fallen snow, slush, or ice to manually plow, propel, launch or otherwise move snow to a spot remote from the operator in a lateral direction outwardly away from the User, for example forward, sideways, or rearward. The implement can also be employed wherein the blade skims the pavement at a shallow angle permitting a rapid pushing motion to send a charge ballistically ahead of the blade to a distant spot and can also be employed in a traditional shoveling mode. The implement can clear open or narrow spaces, wide or narrow steps with or without parapet walls, rails, or other barriers, and it can be economically produced.

Multipurpose Foot Powered System
A multipurpose foot-powered system is disclosed which is a set of foot-powered and hand-operated tools which break up the structure of compacted earth. Specifically, the system comprises a kick-pick tool and a twist-pick tool. The kick-pick tool measures approximately 5-6 feet in length. It resembles a shovel with a hooded steel pick or hooded chisel tip for a blade. The blade is slightly curved like a shovel and an integral footrest is positioned at a convenient distance from the tip of the hooded blade, which will allow the user to drive the hooded blade into the earth with their foot. The twist-pick tool is similar in design, however the tool is entirely straight from its tip through its handle. The footrest height is adjustable by the user and the handle has a T-shaped crossbar that enables a user to twist the hooded blade about the long axis of the twist-pick.

Dual handle snow shovel device
A snow shovel device for shoveling snow includes a shovel blade that is widened along a lateral axis to shovel snow from a support surface. A first handle is attached to and extends upwardly from the shovel blade and the first handle can be gripped by a user thereby enabling the user to push the shovel blade along the support surface to push the snow. A second handle is removably attached to the first handle and the second handle can be gripped by the user. The second handle is positioned closer to the shovel blade than the first handle. In this way the second handle enables the user to throw the snow with the shovel blade without requiring the user to bend over.
Tool
A tool comprising a handle and an implement. The handle comprises an elongate portion having a first end and a second end, and the implement, removably attachable to the handle, comprises an elongate portion at a first end and a tool portion at a second end. In an embodiment of the invention, the handle has, at the first end, a male portion comprising a reducing taper extending from the elongate portion and terminating in a shoulder, and a threaded portion extending from the shoulder and having a cross sectional area lesser than that of the shoulder. In the same embodiment, the implement has, at the first end, a female portion comprising a reducing taper extending inwardly from the first end, a shoulder portion extending from the taper, and a threaded portion extending further inward from the shoulder.
