Abstract
A combination of digging teeth, mounting shank, and backhoe bucket. The shank of each tooth has a rear part by which it can be permanently affixed to the bucket lip. The forward part of the shank has a pocket formed therewithin of a particular configuration which receives a digging tooth in close tolerance relationship therewithin such that a forward marginal part of the tooth extends forwardly from the bucket lip and engages the earth. Each opposed marginal end of each of the teeth has identical cutting edges formed thereon so that a tooth can be reversed as well as being substituted one for the other. The teeth are easily field dressed so as to restore a sharp cutting edge thereon.
