The miniature shoulder plane is used for fine trimming and for cleaning the bottoms of narrow dados, tasks too tight for a full-size shoulder plane.
It's fully functional, not merely decorative. Despite its small size, it cuts real trimming and cleanup work on dado bottoms and shoulders.
Yes, tilt the blade up off the adjustment mechanism and slide it out through the mouth opening for sharpening or replacement.
The corrosion-inhibiting paperboard chip in the case provides continuous protection for up to two years.
Reposition the adjuster's parts by hand back into their proper configuration; the mechanism resets easily without special tools.
