They're well machined and seem to keep their edge at a rate that I'd expect from carbide. Much cheaper option to end up with a quality looking tool. You could absolutely make your own (it's as simple as using a bench grinder and a drill press) but you'd be hard pressed to make one that looks this good, or supports the carbide inserts as well.
