If you've never used a spokeshave before you are probably not familiar with how to sharpen one or set the blade. Buy on with a straight blade. Contoured blades are difficult to sharpen unless you have contoured stones. Get one with two adjusting knobs to set blade depth. If your blade is set wrong you can gouge rather than shave. Get a nice flat stone and keep it sharp.
Stanley makes one that has the above features that goes for about $20.
They're very handy and won't fill your nose with dust like sandpaper.
