There used to be a web site up dedicated to the Toksook paddle, but I can't
seem to find it now, and all links to the US distributor do not appear to
work.

My recollection of the Toksook is the blades being leaf shaped. Something
like a bay leaf, only a little more rounder. Nothing like my greenland
paddle. I don't remember if the blade was symmetrical or asymmetrical
though. I remember the site because it used to have short videos of rolling
demonstrations online. Anyone remember the site?
