Can you provide a little more detail? It looks like a straight-cut, but that's all one can tell...

And shaft size? How long? But I will say, I've never seen a three-fluted one, so that's interesting.

All I know its attached on a Router with a 1/2" shank and has 3 Carbide Blades and is 2" in length, no branding on it

Are you attempting to find an exact replacement, or do you simply want a 1/2" shaft, 2" long straight cutter... what is it, 3/4"? That's a simple enough find.

Just looking for a similar one with three-fluted Carbide blades not 2 which I see a lot of

I have a 3 flute 1/2" shank, 3/4" diameter straight bit like that from MLCS. Works OK but, you have to set the depth from the "tallest" tooth as they are machined unevenly.

Why do you want to stay with 3 flute?
If you want a superior finish, try a spiral bit.
