4-Tine Forged Cultivator

1.5” aprox.

The ferrule on this product is metal.

The ferrule on mine is metal. I’ve used it to clear heavy debris clogging the tin horns (culverts) under my driveway and it hasn’t failed me yet.

YES!

Probably depends on what you are composting. You want to be able to lift and turn your material. So something with straight tines (like a pitchfork) would probably work better. A long or short handled pointed shovel would also be a good choice.

I'd say, it depends. If you have a pile of compost that is wet and clumpy and you're trying to separate it, this would be perfect. If it's dry and fine and you are just spreading it around you might be better off with a regular garden rake. The cultivator is fairly heavy-duty with thick tines and fairly wide spacing.

I use it to turn over mulch spread around trees and to loosen or remove weeds in mulched areas. It's also helpful for turning over the top layer of mulch in my mulch pit. I've found lot of uses for this tool.

Absolutely!

54"

58" 2.5 lbs

Length: 57 inches. Weight: Unknown - but very light. I estimate it to be approx. 2-1/2 lbs. Exceptionally easy to hold, maneuver & use.

This 4 tine cultivator is about 2 lbs. in the tines , lightweight to handle a really good grip on handle, about 54 inches in length

I don't know the length, It's pretty heavy. Build well!

I don't know much about clamming, all I can tell you is it is very sturdy and will have no problem raking through the sand. I'm not sure how wide a good clam rake should be, this is no more than about six inches wide.

YES!

No. Too slim. You might scrape across some but picking them up would be one at a time thing.

For use with casual seashore claiming - probably yes. During my college years, I claimed in chest-high water on the off-shore sandbars that extend along the south shore of Long Island. The clam ranks we used had 8 to 10 foot telescoping poles and very, very large tilling baskets. The Ames cultivator would not be suitable or useable in those circumstances.

Yes in Pennsylvania .

The handle label says - assembled in the United States from foreign & domestic components.

No, it is not made in U.S.A.

Around 1.1/3 inc.

1 5/8 inch

They're about an inch apart.

Ours measures approx. 2 inches between the tines.

I think it could work for that if the rocks aren't too small. The tines are spaced a little wider than a standard rake.

Yes .

Absolutely, should do a great job for you. It is a tough design for the harder yard chores.

It is quite narrow so it should fit. But it depends how big the rocks are: it would struggle with smaller gravel, for instance.

Very happy with my purchases. Easy to work with and handle.
