What is the Low Angle Rebate Block Plane used for?
It is an essential tool for making joinery, particularly dealing with end grain, e.g. tenon shoulders. Because the edge the blade matches the edge of the tool, planning at 90 degrees is similar to using a shoulder plane whilst the tool can also be used to trimming the end of boards just like a block plane.
