Recognize the tools?

I have a book, "Woodcarving Techniques & Designs" by Mike Davies. It is a very good book information wise. There is a picture of a set of tools that Mike Davies recommended. He called them the "Carving by Numbers" set. The handles have "Mike Davies" signature in gold on the them with a number 1 through 5 from top to bottom. I am trying to determine who the manufacturer of the tools is. I thought it was Sorby, but I can't find any reference to these tools on the Internet. On page 24 of the book--where this picture is found--he refers to a list of vendors in the back of the book where the tools could be obtained. But none of them carry the tools anymore. So, does anybody have an idea who manufactured the tools?

After looking at the book a bit more, I discovered that Mike Davies acknowledged MEC tools for making his tools. I found this info. in the Acknowlegements on page 4. So, I guess I answered my own question.
