I have always seen a slight curve to the ends of the grips on the ANH saber as well

I doubt that all T-tracks are consistent either.
I think that most of them are straight angled cut, but not cut from the base of the T but a couple of mm higher up.

These are the best references I have for the grip ends. I agree, I think the cut starts a little above the base, with some being straighter and some being more curved.
I'll second this. It may look rounded because that "shape" is basically a rough cut curve if you think about it :rolleyes
I prefer the more rounds end as it looks that way to me, but I think some are closer to an angle cut.

The problem with the Chronicles pics is that you can't trust the silhouettes of the grips. The images were trimmed by hand, and the ends of the grips could have been cut in the process.

Anakin's Prequel era lightsaber was curved, most of the OT sabers were angled so I'd go with angled.
For me the toe pic shos a clearly angled grip end.
but I made both on mine, I mean, I angled them, then I papered to remove sharp residues, curved a bit and smoothed the edges for a weathered look.

They probably cut them at straight angles but through sanding and use during shooting they became curved.
