I had cut these strips of spruce as reinforcing for the sides of a couple of guitars and wanted to bevel the edges quickly. They were a bit too small to use a plane so I came up with this idea. I grabbed this knife I keep around the workshop, it no longer locks open so is a bit unreliable but works fine in the vise as the vise locks the blade at the angle I choose. If any body knows where I could get it repaired, I’d like to know, thanks. The photos tell the rest of the story.
