The Original Lake Rake and maybe some of the other commercial Lake Rakes styles do have rake teeth that the last 1" at the tip are bent 'down'. This feature improves the function of the rake for digging sediments and uprooting lightly attached weeds. I have used both types and for all around use, I prefer the Lake Rake version with bent tips. It is worth the extra money when 'working' the sediments. For removing floating material bent tips are probably not all that important.
