That grind is one solid hunk of metal. They really are so different to modern hollows. Nice find and in great condition, shame about the missing scales. Im sure you'll find a nice pair for it!
You reckon they're cast steel?

I have seen a few ground like that. They were not flat they have a slight convexity.

After a closer look at the pictures I think the second to last pic may give it away. The tiny pseudo-shoulder makes it look like your right.

A barber customer of mine had a 7-day set GIVEN to him. He says they are all in their original box, with scales, and no nicks/chips. Didn't know the name though. It's killing me. That, and the fact the was using a NICE Geneva Cutlery 5/8 with a perfect patina and scales as a paper cutter....that's killing me more.
