I buy an ER collet set that has the clamping range to fit imperial AND metric cutters of course.  

Vinny: I have a pair of Chinesium Morse taper reamers, #2 & #3. Neither will cut ANYTHING. There is absolutely zero relief angle ground behind the cutting edges. All they do is rub because the back side of the flutes stick out as much as the (so called) cutting edges. Worthless.  

I also use ER. Now that you mention it, I also have a set of morse 2 (rough and finish) reamers and a BS9 reamer. Still wrapped. I should prolly look at them to make sure they're not like yours!
