With the cheapest one being OVER $200 (149 GBP) ( Here: http://www.gomboc-shop.com/), just a wee bit pricey.

I bet the Chinese could make one for $1!

Correction, that’s in Euros, not Pounds. Still puts the cheapest one at nearly $200.

Really cool, thanks for posting!

The one in the picture reminds me of some pictures I’ve seen of flint stone tools in the process of being produced (flint knapping). A hand axe might begin as a round stone of flint then have its sides struck off, one on each side, to produce a “blade” or sharp cutting edge.
