The main drawback of a card scraper is that the usage is a difficult skill to master. It takes a bit of practice to turn the burr correctly and then the scraper must be presented to the work in the correct fashion. Also, due to the friction created in use, the card scraper can become hot enough to burn fingers.
Some woodworkers use the term "cabinet scraper" instead of "card scraper" for this tool. A separate tool, also called a cabinet scraper, differs in having a beveled edge like a plane<sup>needs clarification</sup>.
A variation of the card scraper is the scraper plane which consists of a hand plane body in which a card scraper is mounted. There are also various styles of holder which can be used for this purpose. These simplify the use of the card scraper and alleviate the problems associated with heat.
