I use a japanese saw to cut the ends off, and a very sharp block plane, set very fine, working from the boat toward the block, to fair the block in, then a light sanding to finish up.

It does help that I glass the deck after joining it to the hull, so I can glass the end block in at the same time with a bit of extra glass overlap.

It's a little more fussy to fair in if it is being done as a separate glassing operation, but still doable easily enough.
