I saw a video at YouTube of a guy weeding with a similar tool and looked prety fast.
Sory, I can't help you finding one but I will start looking fore one myself, then I will share the supplier

I dislike both of those types of weeders....I like to use the needle tip tweezers. I only use the dental pick thingy for thermoflex or spectracut. Even with the thermoflex I can get away with my tweezers. I have to wear a leather thimble on my middle finger when I use the pick.

I use the sharp point tweezers,, I have a straight pick awl also but I don't seem to use it very often,, so I guess use what is comfortable to you.
