Norbo's are a bit pointy at the back, but the bends are better. I have not tried one on a bike, so cannot comment on if they fit or not.

I have seen Norbo's ones in the flesh when I have visited him in the past. I saw them when they first came in and checked them out. The Legend ones can be seen clearly on the Ebay images.

The thinning in the bend can be avoided if you use a Mandrel Bending tool.

That’s a standard one from 1996 and that’s a Norbo one from 2019 And the holes line up perfectly.

The bends in Norbo’s aren’t quite right , but they’re close enough, no ones pointed out that it’s a aftermarket part , but the holes all line up and it’s stainless good enough for me 😁.

A used one £150 + ? Really? Well I think I'll flog my unmarked un-rusted OEM one, buy a repro one and put the money left over on a set of new tyres....ie something that REALLY matters on a bike...

Jonw always is better original but these are fine if you just need a replacement if yours is missing damaged.
