Which tool is designed to remove thatch from a lawn, with the rake head angle adjustable to control tine penetration depth?

• A. Dethatcher
• B. Block Plane
• C. Thatching Rake
• D. Power Aerator

Answer: (C)

This is about a tool designed to remove thatch from a lawn and that has an adjustable rake head angle to control how deeply the tines penetrate. A thatching rake uses adjustable tine depth to lift and remove the layer of dead plant material sitting between the grass and the soil. The ability to tilt or angle the rake head lets you choose a light pass for delicate turf or a deeper pass for thicker thatch, giving you precise control over how aggressively you dethatch. A block plane is a woodworking tool, not for lawns; a power aerator creates holes to improve drainage and soil health but doesn’t remove thatch; a dethatcher is a broader term that can refer to various devices, but the described feature—adjustable rake head angle for tine depth—points to the thatching rake.
