Abstract

A weeding implement has an elongate handle and an attachment at one end of the handle, the attachment comprising a straight shank inserted into one end of the handle, a straight portion extending at an angle from the straight shank, a straight transverse portion extending across the longitudinal axis of the shank, a curved intermediate portion connecting the straight portion to one end of the transverse portion at one side of the axis and a flat end portion offset from the axis at an opposite side of the axis. The flat end portion extends in a plane perpendicular to the axis, and the attachment is in one piece of a length of metal rod, which is flattened at one end to form the flat end portion.
