I have this one also, but I modified the blade: http://www.amazon.com/Hyde-10400-Molding-Scraper-blades/dp/B000BQWPOM
This one looks pretty good: http://www.amazon.com/Robert-Larson-620-1450-Shavehook-Blades/dp/B0012XP6ZS/ref=pd_cp_hi_2
And here is another set that may be good: http://www.amazon.com/Shavehooks-Set-4-Best-Value/dp/B003F0E1WA/ref=sr_1_4?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1319202718&sr=1-4

BTW, I almost always modify the blade from the stock shape. Triangles with sharp points aren't very useful. Slightly curved edges with rounded corners are more useful and less likely to make deep grooves in the boat.

I modify the shape with a bench grinder or file.
