Why Copper Garden Tools?
•Copper gardening tools enrich the soils with coppertraceelements and thereby provide plants with essential nutrients
•They are hardwearing and will last for years
•Stay free of rust – but age with a graceful bronze patina, perfect for the coastal gardener
•They have sharp edges
•They have an incomparably longer lifespan than devices from iron
•Viktor Schauberger came to the assessment that cultivating the soil with copper implements would be more beneficial to the Earth and lead to healthier plants. In his writings, he listed several reasons for this.
•Minute amounts of copper create the conditions for beneficial micro-organisms
•Penetrate the soil easily -low coefficient of friction- less tendency for clay to cling to the tool
•Copper is not magnetic - so does not disrupt the electrical fields in the soil
•Can be kept sharp with a whetstone, file or by peening (hammering the edge against a steel anvil)

PKS
In 1995, Johannes Stadler became aware of the ideas of Viktor and Walter Schauberger and started in collaboration with the association PKS ( Pythagoras - Kepler system according to Viktor and Walter Schauberger - " Society for the Promotion natural modern technology " ( www.pks.or.at ) and the blacksmith Franz Höfler with the production and distribution of a small edition of hand-made garden tools made of solid copper alloy. In 2008 , after the retirement of Franz Höfler , the know -how of the production tools and forms were handed over to John Stadler and his team . Thus, it could ensure long-term quality assurance and further development of the " copper PKS gardening tools ". The company name PKS Bronze was introduced . Meanwhile, we offer 29 different garden tools. Their development has been and is through the proposals and suggestions of our customers through the sales via the Internet and supported by the ongoing reflection on sustainability and holistic thinking.
