For versatility, I'd take the Don Pencil Scorpion.

>I agree with Lyn. The Jordan hooker is a unique shape that really facilitates the hollowing activity. Most other hookers are semi-circular and don't quite have the optimal geometry.
For a single, all-around tool, the Scorpion can't be beat for features and value. It comes with a wide assortment of cutting bits and is very reasonably priced. Both of these tools fit in any of the 3/4" socket handles/armbraces.
