I'm frustrated with search engines second guessing (and failing) me. I wonder if there's an old school simple one, maybe supporting boolean expressions. Or an existing one like DDG could create a simpler hardcore version?
I want to suggest Fireball, though it looks like they may have oversimplified things recently. Their search results are usually on-point, but I'm noticing that they only offer a single page of results. I don't believe that this was always the case. Either way, you can find it here:
