By rear blade, do you mean a box blade?

How important is $$$?

Yes a landscaping rake and a rear blade not a box blade

Your question should be, what should I buy first? :laughing:

Without actually seeing it, I would say rake, blade then box blade. With the premise of starting off with moving the least to the most amount of material. In reality you may need the box blade first, depends on what "maintain" might entail.

I have about a mile of woodlot and field trails and don't use any of those to maintain them. I have a scraper blade but it never goes on the trails. I just use my mid mount mower to mow them (keep it up high) and a chainsaw and various branch cutting implements to keep the brush under control and out of the way. Trails are beautiful.

I agree.

We need pictures. I dependant if your road/trails are flat, side slopes and elevation changes. Is water an issue for erosion, heavy vehicle traffic.

I don't have a landscape rake but I can see it uses. Rear blade have the advantage, than again so can do box blades. I would think the rake can probably do the same job as a rear blade and more. For what it's worth I rarely use my rear blade.
