The ones we provide are dnssec-keygen and dnssec-signzone, which are
included with BIND.  Also, named itself--as of BIND 9.7.0, it can sign
your zones automatically and even roll your keys on schedule.  (It can't
generate the keys for you, though; you have to do that by hand.)

ZKT and dnssec-tools seem to be very cool, but I haven't used them
extensively.  ZKT is included with BIND in the contrib directory.

For validation testing, the best tool I know of is drill, which is
included with Unbound.
