I've had these for 30+ years, just hanging around in the bottom drawer of a
old, narrow set of drawers I brought home from a dead relative's shop.

The whole batch weighs just over 1/2 lb. I'm guessing aluminum.

They were found in a drawer with curved bottomed sections. The drawers must
have been modified. Only 2 of the 8 have the curves and it looks like they
had straight dividers at some time.

I wonder why those curved bottoms were added.

Make it easier to get the items out of the drawer as they do not get
caught in the corners.
