I got several mills in a bucket of drill bits at a yard sale this weekend. I'm hoping to get some help identifying them and determining if they are worth spending any time on. I don't have any way to use them, but will put in some time and effort if they can be sold. None are indexable, but all are through coolant versions. I think they might be manufactured by Kennametal, but I don't see anything with similar specs in catalogs or online. The largest has a 1" spindle and the cutting end is ~3/4". The others have a 3/4" spindle and probably 1/2" cutting end. All of these have two flutes and about 2.5" of cutting length. They all have a small amount of galling and fetching on the ends, but appear to generally be in decent shape. I have a few others that are in terrible condition like they were reground. Are they worth resharpening? I'm near Denver, and am looking for recommendations on a place anywhere in the US to send these to have them sharpened. I figure if a shop can resharpen them, I'd get more on the resale. Any information on manufacturer, name, etc would be much appreciated.
Also, what does 2xD or 3xD mean? I keep seeing this in catalogs, and can't decipher this.
Hopefully pics are attached.
