what is the purpose of the notch on the inside corner? most carpenter/framing squares nowadays have one

Hello Mr. Santoku. One of the reasons that the notch is there, is so that it can act as a pivot point, when trying to lay out or draw arches, curves, or circles. Some people tap a nail in that area, or an awl, or a center punch. To hold it in one location, while doing this type of work. I hope this helps. This one here is of fantastic quality! Others have given some good reasons for it as well here, in answering your question.

Does it have metric units on one side?

No it does not have metric measurements

Is this square as shown in photo,as described and are the measurements accurate?

Yes. This is a simple tool, but a very high quality one. Buy it with confidence. And no, I have nothing to do with the company or any advertising, I just like writing as well as possible, and giving accurate reviews.

As of 9/2021, the label states, "Made in China."
