Hand distressed flooring

Have someone who wants to hand distress their own flooring. They don't want to use a cabinet scraper or bona scraper. They say there is a scraper made specifically for this. Can't find one. Any ideas? Tried Lee Valley and Rockler.

Helluva hard work for a distressed finish,it was bad enough having to scrape out every single little corner then sand paper them when I was a kid.
