This plane is called "Tachi-ganna" in Eastern part of Japan and "Dainaoshi-ganna" in Western part of Japan

It has a single blade inserted almost orthogonally to the base that is relatively shorter than a normal smoothing plane/ hira-ganna. It is a crucial tool for adjusting the bottom surface of a smoothing plane/ hira-ganna, which dermins the quality of the shaving. It is also used to shave hardwoods.
