Small plane for planing inside rabbeted frame?

Aug 04, 2019 Last reply: 6 years ago 2 Replies

I had one but left it with my son in law in Canada. Now I can't remember the name of that type of plane and I need one. It was an all metal body and if the nose was unscrewed and removed it was possible to plane right into a corner. I want to buy one online but can't think of a suitable keyword. Help!


The stand-alone plane is a chisel plane.

However you sometimes get them combined with a small rabbet or shoulder plane. The names vary, but include things like bullnose plane:

Thanks, the bullnose is the one I had and it'll be the one I buy.
