Three-pronged hand fork in copper, Vega model, PKS Bronze range

The traditional hand fork Vega model by PKS Bronze, named after the famous Austrian ecologist and naturalist, is a tool specially designed to loosen and aerate the surface soil along the edges or between plants in flower beds. It is of superior quality and consists of a copper head with reinforced tines to easily penetrate and work the soil, attached to an ergonomic and soft-to-the-touch beech handle. Its three reinforced prongs will aerate the soil in pots or flower beds, transplant seedlings in pots, or break up clumps.

This small hand fork is an essential tool for turning the soil without damaging the roots and maintaining balconies, flower beds, and rockeries. Its size is specially designed for maintaining flower boxes, pots, and small flower beds. Copper tools are lightweight, easy to handle, and non-magnetic and have the advantage of not dulling, so there is no need to sharpen them. When working the soil with a copper tool, you introduce trace elements that positively influence soil hydration. Copper tools are attractive and with a shiny, silky finish. They are extremely durable and last for decades.

The copper hand fork is an ideal tool for working the soil surface in small garden areas, balconies, edges, or flower beds. Use it to scratch and turn the surface of your soil, thus aerating the top layer and preventing root asphyxiation, which hinders the plant's development. This will allow water to penetrate the soil more easily, hence the expression "hoeing is worth two waterings". It is an effective tool for raking the surface to unearth weed roots. If the soil is loose to a good depth, use the three-pronged head to quickly dig holes for planting bulbs, rhizomes, or potted perennials and annuals.

The PKS Bronze range manufactures high-quality tools, most of which are made of copper, with beech handles. This tool is covered by a 2-year warranty.
