I recently bought two 1/2-28 taps from a seller on PM, but since no one else wanted them he sent me all he had (about 15). These are all US made HSS. I don't know how often anyone needs this thread (I'm using it for a packing gland), but anyone who wants some is welcome. $1 each to cover postage.
 
Guess I'm brain dead. What does HSS stand for?
 
high speed steel. Right. Just had one of those brain farts.
 
After allocating taps to those who have PM'ed me, I have 6 taps left. They are Balax thread-forming taps, not thread cutting, with TiN coating. Ends are flat and thus useful as bottoming taps.
