I will attempt to explain my query.
The toe of the plane has a bevel where it meets the rear sole of the plane. This bevel is the joint which is as you quite rightly point out is normally done using a tongue and groove style.
My question is that when you slide the 2 pieces upto each other they meet nicely. then on go the sides and you would turn the plane over to pein the sides and sole. what prevents the toe piece sliding up that clever little bevel joint whilst you are peining the shell ?
Archie.

This is the same mark as I used on the No 982 lever cap. The reason I put it on this plane is there is no room for the other one!

Whilst on the subject I think Thomas Norris actually marked some of his planes TN. At least my KH looks nice in its Art Deco styling, you will see a lot more of it in the future.

I thought I had everything covered, but I don’t understand your question.

Why is the HOLTEY mark that was always so classily and descretely positioned within the mouth of your planes now replaced in this instance with KH ?
I have always admired the sublety of the Holtey stamp and its sneeky little position. Is there are little secret hidden within this new KH that I keep seeing ?
Archie.

The bevel through the dovetail and the recieving rebate does appear to be Genius ! But hypethetically speaking what actually stops the front part from slipping down the back part ?
i.e. as you pein the two components why is the force of the blow not casuing one component to slip down the other.
Go Karl tell me ?
Best wishes,
Archie.
