Manufacturer: Various
Tool Type: Wooden Planes
Plane Type: Tailed Rebate
The wooden tailed rebate / rabbet plane has a handle grip rear end which resembles
an animal's tail. This type of plane can also be referred to as a 'pistol grip'
plane, once again due to the shape of the handle grip at the rear.
The tailed rebate / rabbet planes quite often appear with a variety of
different soles. The standard is the flat sole with curved compass soles
also being common.
Please see the
