Agree with everyone above on the Cobra Head weeder, one of the best tools I own. But I don't use the bulb diggers, I found an easier way to do it ... attach an auger drill head to your cordless drill, comes in sizes for both small bulbs and large. And, conveniently, the larger (3-inch) auger drill is perfect not only for large bulbs, but to plant daylily seedlings or tomato plants in the spring.

amazon has them in a set of two, but the shafts are shorter than the ones I have ...

I've been using mine for nearly 10 years and they are still in mint condition. Mine are 2-ft long (or maybe 30 inches) and stainless steel, but other than the deeper holes I drill for tomato seedlings, the length of the ones on amazon are probably irrelevant if just used for bulbs or DL seedlings.
Life is what happens while you are making other plans.
