I find it particularly useful when you have used a small gouge to make the nostril openings it allows you to clean up the back edge of the wood to be removed without chipping out the side of the nose.
Also if you want to make a very fine separation between two pieces of clothing (like a shirt and a vest) it allow you to make a fine cut so that it looks like the shirt is behind the vest and allows for there to be a shadow.
