Yoshitaka Small Rabbet Planes (Kiwa-Kanna) with SK steel 義隆 豆際鉋 SK鋼

These little rabbet planes are fantastic for cleaning up tenons - compared to a chisel, it almost feels like cheating. I wish I'd gotten them sooner.

My reservation had been that the blade seating for this type of plane is quite complex. The ones I received needed a just little paring to bring the edge down to the mouth, with the blade's leading corner emerging flush with the body of the dai.
