Available in many places, this is just the first one I came across. Got mine
at Rockler.


I'll second that. I have a #49 & #50. Those are excellent values and
I'm very happy with mine.

However, I was able to try a genuine, hand cut Auriou once, and they
really are sweet tools if you can spring for one. They're nearly
effortless to use and control.
