Yeah, it's the same as those generic ebay ones, which I like better than the original Pentax clip-on types. The original Pentax clip-on hoods are mostly plastic ones (some are metal ones, but rare). Those cheapy screw-on type feels more solid, and best of all, you can put a cap on top of the hood, much convenient to use.
The hood alone only costs a few dollars, plus a cap, they won't cost more than $10. Some sellers even sell them bundled together.
