Default Unknown Piston brand...Any pistons with no stamp?

Nutzurchin - a very good seller here on h-t. vouch thread - (https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=967673) is offering to sell me some pistons and new wiseco rings. He is unsure of the brand. He said his machine shop checked them to be 9:1 in a Z6 standard bore. He has no pictures. He says they look like any other forged piston on the market. The machine shop was not able to determine a brand. My question: Are there any high quality forged pistons out there that do not have any stamp to determine what brand they are?

thanks for the replys guys... guess they're definitely not CP's - does anyone have wiseco's? stamped or no? Pics look like no...
- also would a ring made by wiseco for a certain bore fit a wiseco piston and maybe not a SRP or CP or JE or Arais?
