Bikes: '96 Litespeed Catalyst, '05 Litespeed Firenze, '06 Litespeed Tuscany, '20 Surly Midnight Special, All are 3x10. It is hilly around here!

I think you want a fork with straight blades, not really zero rake. Rake is incorporated into forks one of two ways, either by curving the blades or by using straight blades attached to the fork crown at a suitable angle. I think you want the later. A true zero rake fork would give poor handling as the trail would be excessive.
