3 flute 60deg v groove router bit for lettering

[Silas Gull]

Evening all.
Does anyone know of a supplier in the UK?

is 3 flute essential?

I'm assuming it'll be smoother for free- hand routing of letters. Not something I've done before, so any advice will be gratefully received.

Axi do a 2 flute, I use it for thread cutting on an engineering lathe with a small router attached to the tool post

Thanks for that, I'd missed it first time round.
It seems that 3 fluted versions are only available in USA, but I'd like to be proved wrong.

Trend do letter stencils and I believe they do the bits to use with them ?
