   My personal favorite is the Weldon single flute(a diagonal hole) The Weldons are very chatter resistant. As to angle, that depends on application and fastener used in the countersink.

   Do a Google on   Weldon single flute countersink  to find a distributor.

   I don't know if they're Weldon or another brand, but Lee Valley has countersinks in that style: http://www.leevalley.com/wood/page.aspx?c=2&p=32308&cat=1,180,42240,42281&ap=1.

   I like them for deburring the edges of drilled holes by hand; they cut more cleanly than the traditional multi-edge countersinks.

   I have the Lee Valley set that Steve linked you to, and they've been great.  I've used them in wood and in brass.  One thing I really like is that the design makes it easy to CS a hole that's already been drilled, and be centered.
