Legendary Chatham Scratchers
A time tested classic
that has been a
popular favorite for over 30
years. Works the bottom like a hot knife through butter. Sensitive,
long tines that "sing", meaning they carry a slight vibration from the
rake head up the handle. With a little practice, the user can feel the
difference between a quahog and a rock just by scratching the surface.
The Chatham Scratcher, named after the town that loved
it
first, is also great for dry digging, and as a short handle rake. It
has also been used frequently by gardeners as a cultivating and weeding
tool.

scratcher. An R.A. Ribb Company favorite!
