They look like the later version of the Control Tech canti. IIRC the early control techs were a little sharper around the edges as they were CNCed, they look forged to me. They rely on the straddle creating the tension in the brake arms rather than having springs in each arm. Had a set and as I recall they were easy to set up, weighed nothing and were plenty strong enough!
 
mine are the earlier versions in that case, they work without cantilever springs and just use the straddle wire to push or pull the canti's in
 
Oh...Kay... Now I remember where I've seen them = )
Hey, thanks guys! Any Idea on how much I should be paying for a nos set like those above ?
