I've currently got 2 of them. (Had 3, but the fire...) all of them have square drive, and, if assembled correctly, the scale should be the same on both sides.

Yes, the blade is a Disston design. (Or, at least made by Disston to Magna specs.)

See what happens when one depends upon distant memory. My recollection of the two sides not both indicating was of when I had it assembled incorrectly(still relying on memory). My blade is currently 'inaccessible'.
