French term or phrase: paroir
This is from a list of tools used in hand-carving clogs, in the context of a historic village where demonstrations are made for the public.
I can't find definitions for each of these tools: does anyone happen to be a clog expert?

Explanation:
Large blade attached to the bench at one end by a hook. Various models appear to exist.
The You tube series of films may be useful for other clog maker's tools too.
