Someone please tell me the proper use of this. I know what i have used it for but always wondered if I was right. Thanks in advance ☺️

That is very cool Rusty. I've never seen one before; pretty rare. Now you have to find the other half of the set, the #99.

Found this video. Hope it helps.

Looks like it would clean up the edge of a rabbet and get into the corner really well. Has a depth stop and everything. Looks like half of a 45. I’d have called it a model 22 1/2.

Thanks Guys; I bought it at a retirement auction years ago (works good for cleaning up tenons) think I paid about $3 for it didn't know what i was buying but happy with how I use it😁

Good return on investment Rusty. From what I found they bring $75-$100 on the open market today.

I've used that very one before and a LV side rabbet plane as well. Both are good for cleaning up rabbet walls. But I like Side Snipe mouldings planes better. Source: The Patriot Woodworker https://share.google/7Je7ywMf5mSpoxZjP

Found THIS interesting tidbit on the #98, #99 and the "combo" #79.

If you want to sell it @Rusty S, I'll give you what it sold for new.

Dave I'm sure you would I'll keep you in mind(maybe).
