text: for the purposes of promoting an understanding of the principles in accordance with the embodiments of the present invention , reference will now be made to the embodiments illustrated in the drawings and specific language will be used to describe the same . it will nevertheless be understood that no limitation of the scope of the invention is thereby intended . any alterations and further modifications of the inventive feature illustrated herein , and any additional applications of the principles of the invention as illustrated herein , which would normally occur to one skilled in the relevant art and having possession of this disclosure , are to be considered within the scope of the invention claimed . the embodiments of the present invention relate to an all - in - one type garden tool comprising multiple features in a single tool . while specific tool configurations are illustrated and described herein , other tool configurations are contemplated and within the spirit and scope of the present invention . the tool and related attachable items illustrated and described herein may be fabricated of any suitable materials , including metals , alloys , composites , plastics and the like . the tool and its component parts may be fabricated using known techniques such as molding , machining , milling and the like . fig1 shows an all - in - one type garden tool 100 according to the embodiments of the present invention . the garden tool 100 comprises a trowel 105 , weeder and nail remover 110 , side edge saw 115 , side edge machete 120 , rear edge blade 125 , rear edge micro - serrated saw 130 , safety stop 135 and handle 140 . one end 145 of the handle 140 is configured for receipt of an elongated handle 150 ( see , fig2 a , 2 b and 3 ). a cap 155 protects an attachment means 146 configured for receipt of the elongated handle 150 . the attachment means 146 may comprise a threaded member ( e . g ., collar ) configured to receive a threaded end of the elongated handle 150 , or a channel extending into the tool handle 140 which is configured to receive one end of the elongated handle 150 in a frictional relationship , or any other suitable means for attaching the elongated handle 150 to the tool handle 140 . the weeder and nail remover 110 is positioned on the leading edge of the trowel 105 and comprises a cut - out which may or may not be sharpened along its edges . the tool handle 140 is ergonomically designed to accommodate a user &# 39 ; s hand providing a comfortable experience . in one embodiment , the tool handle 140 includes four grooves forming a hand grip configured for comfortably accommodating a user &# 39 ; s finger . the safety stop 135 , as shown , is in the form of a bar . however , those skilled in the art will recognize that other forms ( e . g ., circular collar , rectangular plate ) may be integrated between the trowel 105 and tool handle 140 to prevent a user &# 39 ; s hand from inadvertently slipping off the tool handle 140 during use and into the rear edge blade 125 and / or rear edge micro - serrated saw 130 . the safety stop 135 therefore prevents injury to the user . fig2 a and 2 b shows the elongated handle 150 comprising a grip 160 , telescoping shaft 165 and attachment device 170 configured to mate with attachment means 146 on the tool handle 140 . a cap 175 is configured to protect the attachment device 170 . the telescoping shaft 165 may use an arrangement comprising a pin and multiple openings to facilitate the lengthening and shortening of the telescoping shaft 165 . other means including a tightening and loosening collar may be used to facilitate lengthening and shortening of the telescoping shaft 165 . when attached , the elongated handle 150 serves multiple purposes . first , the elongated handle 150 allows a user to operate the garden tool 100 in a manner synonymous with a conventional shovel . second , the grip 160 and elongated handle 150 allows the garden tool 100 to be used in a manner synonymous with a cane such that an elderly or disabled user may utilize the garden tool 100 to move from one garden location to another garden location or more remote location ( e . g ., house ). the curved nature of the grip 160 relative the telescoping shaft 165 ( i . e ., generally 90 degrees as shown ) allows the elongated handle 150 and garden tool 100 to act as a cane . fig3 shows the elongated handle 150 attached to the garden tool 100 . as set forth herein , the attachment means 146 may comprise any suitable means configured to attach the elongated handle 150 to the tool handle 140 . fig4 shows a rake attachment 180 attached to the elongated handle 150 to form a conventional rake tool . fig5 shows an exemplary case 185 for containing the garden tool 100 when not in use . the case 185 includes a trowel sleeve 190 configured to receive the trowel 105 thereby concealing the weeder and nail remover 110 , side edge saw 115 , side edge machete 120 , rear edge blade 125 and rear edge micro - serrated saw 130 . a snap , button 195 , opening or similar means allows the case 185 to be attached to a tool belt . although the invention has been described in detail with reference to several embodiments , additional variations and modifications exist within the scope and spirit of the invention as described and defined in the following claims .
