They do look that way but in person they are soft and more rounded due to the ceramic tumbling, so none of the edges register to your finger as sharp. Right now, we sell 1u's for 20 dollars, 22 for custom laser marked legends (vector upload). Modifier keys and spacebar are modeled, but the fixtures for manufacturing them are not! We have been proving and developing for about 6 months, and we just received shipment of our fiber laser, so we are also getting that machine dialed in.
A set of alphas, with custom legends on just the finger pad, we would estimate at about $600. You end up getting about 6 key caps for free, or somewhere around a 15% discount. A full 60% set would be upwards from there, but we plan on getting the discount to cut a bit deeper as well.
We are also really open to feedback, and are expecting to have a version two after we get some out in the wild.
It would be wonderful if you hopped over to the website and picked one up so you could tell us what you think
