Anyone recognize these RC10 axles?

I've had these laying around for a while and decided to use them on a project. I don't recall ever seeing this type before. Figured you guys might know.

if they are really shiny compared to other sets, they are probably trinity universals, also fairly fragile from what I understand. I have a pair and the axles are very well smoothed or polished.

Yes, they are very smooth/polished. I thought they might be stainless or titanium but a magnet sticks right to them.

I want to say Yokomo but I can't find an image to confirm.

they can be stainless and magnetic.

the giveaway is the fillets on the steps up to the yoke. Yokomo ones have much less of a radius.
