A hand-operated, rolling leaf-rake that is rolled over leaves or other debris to collect the leaves or debris for disposal. It employs rolling drums with retractable spikes that puncture and collect leaves or debris as the tool is pushed along the ground. The drums are comprised of an inner assembly covered with spikes that rise and protrude through holes in the outer drum as it is rolled, and alternately retract through the holes and drop back down to rest again on the inner cylinder. As the spikes retract, the leaves/debris are left deposited on the ground and can be removed. The spikes are under control of a lock mechanism.

1. A rolling leaf rake comprising: an inner drum coaxial with an outer drum, said drums adapted to rotate about a common axis, said drums under control of a locking mechanism, wherein, in a first position of the locking mechanism, the drums are locked together and rotate together, and in a second position of the locking mechanism, the drums can rotate a fixed distance relative to one another between a first relative position and a second relative position;a plurality of spikes attached to said inner drum;a plurality of holes in said outer drum;wherein, in the first relative position, the spikes on the inner drum protrude through the holes in the outer drum, and in the second relative position, the spikes on the inner drum do not protrude through the holes in the outer drum. 2. The rolling leaf rake of claim 1 wherein said inner drum is adapted to be filled with a liquid. 3. The rolling leaf rake of claim 1 further comprising an outer shield partly concentric with said drums. 4. The rolling leaf rake of claim 1 further comprising a means for preventing said inner drum from rotating when said drums rotate between the first relative position and the second relative position. 5. A rolling leaf rake comprising: an inner drum coaxial with an outer cylinder, said drum and cylinder adapted to rotate about a common axis, said drum and cylinder under control of a locking mechanism, wherein, in a first position of the locking mechanism, the drum and cylinder are locked together and rotate together, and in a second position of the locking mechanism, the drum and cylinder can move a fixed distance relative to one another between a first relative position and a second relative position;a plurality of spikes attached to said drum;a plurality of holes in said cylinder;wherein, in the first relative position, the spikes on the drum protrude through the holes in the cylinder, and in the second relative position, the spikes on the drum do not protrude through the holes in the cylinder. 6. The rolling leaf rake of claim 5 wherein said drum is adapted to be filled with a liquid. 7. The rolling leaf rake of claim 5 further comprising an outer shield partly concentric with said drum and cylinder. 8. The rolling leaf rake of claim 5 further comprising a means for preventing said drum from rotating when said drum and cylinder rotate between the first relative position and the second relative position.
