CONT

Les ratissoires sont des outils tranchants, longuement emmanchés, spécialement aménagés pour la destruction mécanique des mauvaises herbes dans les cultures comme sur les allées de jardin. (...) La ratissoire canadienne en forme d'étrier est constituée d'un mince ruban d'acier fixé sur les deux antennes latérales de la douille d'emmanchure.

OBS

Dans les catalogues canadiens, on trouve «gratte hollandaise». «Ratissoire hollandaise» conviendrait sans doute mieux.
