3/8" NPT Die
Doubt Harbor Freight has one. Try local small hardware stores like True Value or Westlake if you have those chains around. Lowe's / Depot suck for stuff like that.
Are you needing a die or a tap? I don't know that I've ever seen a NPT die. The NPT threads are tapered. I have several NPT taps though.

Tap or Die I was thinking of a Tap when I suggested Lowes/Home Depot. The Die is used for threading a piece of pipe. The Tap threads the hole that the pipe fits into. What do you have to thread? Many hardwares, as well as Home Depot and Lowes will cut and thread 3/8" pipe to length for you.
My Rigid brand pipe threading set has 3/8", 1/2" and 3/4" dies and replacement parts are available at the Home Depot by me.
My large Tap/Die set from Sears included a 1/8" and 1/4" NPT as well as normal NC and NF Dies and Taps. I dont know if their larger set includes 3/8" or not.
Check wholesale Plumbing supply stores in your area if you dont have a Sears by you.
