Those are Curtis #14 clippers and they are not how the keys were originally cut. Original keys were cut on an automatic code machine. I stopped using those clippers back in the 80's when they were replaced by Curtis #15 clippers.

The clippers actually cut the keys at a 45 degree angle and the cuts are then beveled. Code machines cut a much better key. Just an FYI
