Copper tools
I recommend the beautifully made copper tools sold by Implementations, who are based at a biodynamic farm in Berkshire.
My favourites of these tools are the Castor trowel, Hydra hoe, and … Orion spade. A spade? So good when planting trees and shrubs, plus when removing stemroots of brambles.
The tools are 95% copper, and 5% tin which gives a lot of extra strength. Strictly speaking that is bronze, but colloquially, the word copper is commonly used.
Because they do not to rust, the blades stay smooth and shiny, sliding easily through compost and soil with minimal disturbance. Also the capillary structure of soil is not damaged – this is based on the work of Victor Schuberger who first advised using copper. That was in the early 1930s when he was called in by the king of Bulgaria to advise on why their wheat harvests were declining. Schauberger noticed the worst problems were where they had switched from using wooden mouldboard ploughs to iron. When they reverted to wood, or used copper in some form, the harvests went back up.
