I thought a cabinet scraper was a thin piece of metal which you pulled across the surface of wood to give a finer finish than sandpaper.
However
They also show
Can find them on Axminster but not Screwfix.
Just idle curiosity, really.

That's a scraping plane, which may be shortened to scraper. The blade is prepared differently to a freehand scraper being sharpened at 45degrees instead of using a hook made by turning over a square edge.
I got one of the Axminster sets with a Clico burnisher (an extravagance ;-) and they work well, holding a nice edge.

They are normally hand held but can be mounted in a block or as this is in an adjustable tensioner. Note:
Double edged cutter can be tensioned to give coarse or fine settings. Used for fine finishing of hardwoods.
I agree with you! But interestingly - try looking at
Maybe it's a new design of scraper?
