I am specifically interested in the 3 flute endmills. They have two models HSAM1 from Israel and HSAM2 from South Korea.
The South Korean version comes only in corner radius versions, but seems likely to be YG1. I am wondering if they are the same as the YG1 Alu Power HPC? They should be a very good deal if they are at $29 for 1/2" vs $48 for a YG1 branded one.
The Israel sourced sharp corner ones are just $24.
Anyone try these yet and can confirm what they are and how they perform?
HSAM1 Israel:
HSAM1, 1/2" O Carbide End Mill, 1/2" Shank x 1" LOC, Square Profile, 3 Flute, Uncoated
HSAM2 South Korea:
HSAM2, 1/2" O Carbide End Mill, 1/2" Shank x 1-1/4" LOC, 0.015" Radius, 3 Flute, Uncoated
YG1 for comparison:
1/2" 3FL with .010"Radius, 1.25"LOC, Bright Finish Carbide End Mill 37deg ALU-POWER HPC 3"OAL, 1/2"Shank
Around Christmas I bought this cobalt split point drill index set which appear to be YG1 Gold P drills for $218 on sale.
111-Piece, HSSCO8 Jobber Drill Bundle (Fractional, Letter, Number)
Edit: got the link for the South Korea endmill wrong
