For a long time I've been struggling with aching hands whenever I do any significant amount of amigurumi, which I have read can be quite a common problem.
So for a while I've been after these hooks for a while called Hamanaka Soft Touch crochet hooks (from Japan). I found them on ebay, and although they are quite pricey (I got them for roughly £30 for the set) you do get five double ended hooks, which is pretty much all the sizes you need.
I've not had chance to use them much, but can already tell that they are much better for my hands, and I would recommend them to anyone who has the same problem.
I found the needles quite hard to get hold of originally, but have seen them available on both Etsy and Ebay at one time or another.
