The McLeod Tool is a versatile wildland firefighting and trail maintenance tool designed to clear vegetation, construct fire lines, and manage ground fuels with maximum efficiency. Combining a heavy-duty rake on one side and a sharpened hoe blade on the other, the McLeod allows firefighters to quickly switch between digging, scraping, raking, and clearing tasks without changing tools.
A staple of wildland firefighting operations, the McLeod is ideal for creating fire breaks, removing combustible vegetation, cutting through roots and sod, and exposing mineral soil to help slow or stop the spread of fire. Its long handle provides excellent leverage and reach, making it equally valuable for forestry work, trail construction, and land management applications.
