I've had a pair of 36" landscape rakes for 5-6 years, and I love them. Both the blue and orange box stores carry them. I also have a throw and drag cutter, but I rarely use it enough to recommend it.

I bought my rake from Bill Cody. I couldn't be happy with it. Robust design and easy to throw with a nice long rope included. I've even used it to pull a small brush pile out of the pond when my bride had a big CC hang her up!

I got lucky and found a "Yardworks® 36" Aluminum Landscape Rake" at Menards on sale for $15, added a couple pool noodles to it (part of one at the teeth and the other on the handle) and some 1/4" Well Pump Safety Rope to it. I have used it a couple times on FA and it makes the chore much easier compared to the garden rake I had on hand before. The job is still tedious, but the tool was well worth the 25$ I had in it.
I can't speak for any of the cutters out there. I'm glad I don't have that problem, Seasonal FA is quite enough.
Fish on!, Noel

To date, I use this and very happy about it! Midwest Rake Company 86036 Lake Rakes with floats - blue. This tool is very good, especially if you have a huge garden. My mother uses these scissors in all those who are comfortable for him. Despite this recently, we ordered a fashionable designer who made us a beautiful garden. I like it very much, and I paid a lot of money for the tools for working in the garden. I like it when my mom comes from work, he has a profession in the garden, and she is glad that her son gave her a gift, it makes me feel calm. https://www.hausandgarten.com/products/haus-garten-compact-titanium-bypass-pruning-shears
