Like everyone else says, MacLeod is what you're probably after. Tampers tend to be heavier, harder work and a smaller face area.
I find Macleods work fine as far as the unavoidable compromises inherent in a tool that's designed to do several things (rake, tamp, scrape, dig). A good chillington hoe / azada is also very useful in the right situation, as is a long handled (48"), round point, swan neck shovel. Anything long handled is a bonus TBH (saves the back 😉
Just like the bike you ride or the tyre you run though, the right tool for you will depend on what you're digging through and what you're trying to build.
