A palm router.
 
I obhtug one o' them there Katsu routers. Anyone else got one, and
experience to relate? This with 1/4" and 3/8" collets, intended use in
conjunction with Mighton's TCT 2mm slot cutter for applying weather
stripping to timber windows & doors an other light endeavours.

I've got the Makita (which I presume it's a knock-off of) have mostly
used it for roundover bits, but sure it's capable of more ...

You forget yourself, sir! This is uk.d-i-y, not Sheds. AIUI, we don't
do ROT13; although we do do acronyms, big time.

Ah, but is it rot13, or an anagram?

It isn't BuddCrypt, that would be 'obguth'.

My goodness, I hadn't even realised. I looked in the shed not long ago,
after decades of absence, and must have caught something here. The place
is unrecognisable.

Apologies.

Is the query specific to palm routers, or that particular model?

Slot cutter should be fine (and in some way is less unintuitive[1] to
use in a fixed base router than a plunge one)

[1] I find them quite easy to mess up bits of wood with by forgetting
that you can't use any kind of plunge action with them, and need to
place them on to the reference surface without having a lump out of it,
then sliding into the cut, then cutting, then sliding out, and finally
removing from the reference surface also with having a lump out of it!

That particular machine. A Katsu 1/4 & 3/8" palm router.

Is there a name for words that consist entirely of rot13 inverse pairs?

Can't give you any specifics in which case. Chances are it will be much
the same as most budget routers - adequate but perhaps a little rough at
times. (probably better for being fixed base rather than plunge)
