The wedge shape on most leaf rakes has nothing specific to do with the rake's ability to rake, but rather is the most common way to make a strong tool using the least material. The tines all share a common source-point at the base of the handle, and radiate from that point in straight lines. This gives you the common shape of most commercial rakes.
