Any ideas for a seriously heavy duty weed puller?

Hi Edward,

Here are a few more links to pullers you can consider:

Not exactly a stem gripper, but it would loosen the ground
around the weed and maybe get it up (shrug).

It doesn't say so here, but I've seen this locally and it
was made by Fiskars. I'm not sure how long it would hold up
under hard use though...

I also saw this locally and it looked pretty heavy duty.
Hard to say for sure though, it would depend on the quality
of the wood handle and steel that was used.

Good luck!
