Dear TXXT123, I think the rake you have is a "Wombat" or a "Pick-Up Rake" both manufactured by "Choice Products Inc." in the USA www.choiceproducts.com

The best pick up rake you can get is the EZ-PIKUP RAKE from Canada Rake, http://www.canadarake.com which has a industry standard rake head with a sliding grip and articulating pickup mechanism. They will ship you a rake from their site in Canada if you ask for one but the shipping costs may be too high.
