Default swaging die reamers

Was wondering if any of you know of a good reliable tool and cutter shop that could cut some carbide reamers for me. I need some to make some point form dies. I can make my own out of tool steel but I am looking for carbide so I can get the rpms up on the lathe and end up with better tool life.
Thank You,
U.P.

Pacific tool and gauge ? Call Dave Kiff and inquire.

Yep-yep. Dave will grind you what you need, but, unless you will be making a bunch of them I'd stick with HSS. You'll only be using them for the basic form regardless of what steel you use, and lap to the final dimensions, so HSS works just great. To each his own, and I'm not telling you how to go about your project just my experience FWIW.
