Check these two out.

Lesche Digging Tool Prospectors Patch http://www.prospectorspatch.com.au/eshop/products/Lesche-Digging-Tool.html
Garrett Edge Digger Tool http://www.minersden.com.au/garrett-edge-digger-tool/

Personally I prefer the Lesche over the Garrett, but In saying that I have been considering getting a Garrett and sharpening the edges up to see how it goes.

Garrett also put one out. Most metal detecting shops sell them.

Heres the one I bought:

I use my old abattoir knives, put a serrated edge on one side for heavy roots, heat treated and regularly sharpened, no blisters without gloves, or searing handles in the heat, get a few funny looks at times but yet to find anything better for no kill plug cutting. Slips in leather pocket while detecting. Can't beat a plug with an Inox boning knife but there are laws against knives in vehicles. The thin edge allows the draw out of a solid cone shape Paramount for keeping the pre decs in as is condition. Some great options above.

Bought a Barco Wrecking knife/chisel $30 from Total Tools, haven't used it in the field yet but looks indestructible .....

Love my barco wrecking chisel, with a belt holster it is a small but very sturdy plug cutter.
