    Not ALL microtomes follow the asymmetrical grind pattern.

    There is no reason not to think that a microtome wedge grind might not have a shallow to it.

    i don't really see the difference between the C and a normal wedge blade.

    Looks like those scales could use a little tweaking. Are they Bakelite type material?
