Ted,
starting off with the lightweight handscrapers:
top..Stanley No. 82,flex head ..$15
next down: Atkins...standard 3" blade stationary head...$15.
Bottom...Starrett, flex head...you really have to use their blades..large hole in the center...,$15
all these are rather lightweight...Stanley can accept a wider blade..
next up...top two are Merit scrapers..solid heavy duty scrapers...blade can use all four edges by rotating them, flex head..$18 EACH one sold
bottom..E C Sterns..uses a blade with a hole in the center but can also clamp a shorter blade at the mouth, flex head..$15
topNichols Mfg.#282 style but longer handle by 2-3 inches...and heavier with the bottom plate being cast, stationary head..$20

bottom..unmarked 1lb 5oz..max blade 3". flex head..$15 sold
blades: I've made from circular saw blades and even the old two man saws...proper thickness...thinner blades I've made from regular hand saws...I think you'll need the thicker blades...
