Q: When should I use this scraping plane instead of a regular smoothing plane?

It is ideal for final smoothing of highly figured wood or reversing grain, where tear-out is otherwise hard to avoid.

Q: How do I control the cutting angle?

An adjustable frog lets you set the blade angle anywhere from 0° to 25° for fine control of the cutting action.

An integral thumbscrew bows the blade, eliminating the ridges that straight blade corners can leave in the surface.

It weighs 4 lb and includes a 2 7/8" wide, 0.055" high-carbon steel blade hardened to Rc48-51, with the cutting edge ground at 45°.
