The first URL, Begali are the Ferrari of CW keys, with prices to match.

Incredible workmanship and still a family-owned and run business. Worth every cent.

Got to say it’s interesting to read this comment and check the site and prices are 150~600 (the upper end being an anniversary edition aluminium and stainless beast).

Obviously really expensive for what is at the core a spring and an electric contact or two (depending on type) — which can be just one part at the expense of longevity, but as hobby pieces it seems quite reasonable, I’ve seen way worse spends from friends who fell in love with mechanical keyboards.

When you compare the price per contact, mechanical keyboards come out quite favorably!

True but morse keys are typically much lower latency!

Here we are railing against $500 mechanical keyboards, and some dude whips out $500 CW keys. The ultimate one-up.

The comparison with mechanical keyboards is spot on! Despite having nothing to do with radio or morse in any way, I was given a Vibroplex and it is quite a piece of kit - solid as a rock and obviously a tool well suited to its one task. It reminds me of some of the old tonearms used on turntables, with many springs, counterweights and possible adjustments.

I like the Aluminum Finger Pieces from the first URL.

I got a Begali and oddly I ended up preferring the feel of the plastic finger pieces (also included). I like a really light touch.

Some more options, the first two are less expensive options:
