I call it a bevel square, most people call it sliding bevel square. If you need one, buy the type that tightens from the end, this way it can be flipped without the wing nut or knurl getting in the way.Some have a recessed knurl, I don't care for these, seems to loosen easily.

Thank You for your response. It's hard to find the tool you want when you don't know what it's called.
Thanks again,
Stan
Perfect answer!
Shinwa makes a great one- all metal, stays locked, and screw in the end so you can use it either side.

JC, Thank You for taking the time to respond. After posting my question, I found my Taunton's Fine Homebuilding 2005 toolbuying guide. I noted the Shinwa and appreciated the feature you spoke of that allows use from either side. Thanks again for your response, Stan
