For what?  For hewing?  Lee Valley has some.

I bought a set several years ago, but haven't used them.  I have hewed logs, but I cut them with my sawmill first.  I oversized each face by 1/2" and hewed them from there.  I set them on cribbing ponies to hew them.  I have a couple vids on youtube if you're interested.
