Abstract: We study unbounded 2-dimensional metric polytopes such as those arising as K"ahler quotients of complete K"ahler 4-manifolds with two commuting symmetries and zero scalar curvature. Under a mild closedness condition, we obtain a complete classification of metrics on such polytopes, and as a result classify all possible metrics on on the corresponding K"ahler 4-manifolds. If the polytope is the plane or half-plane then only flat metrics are possible, and if the polytope has one corner then the 2-parameter family of generalized Taub-NUTs (discovered by Donaldson) are indeed the only possible metrics. Polytopes with nge3 edges admit an (n+2)-dimensional family of possible metrics.
