TheHardwareCity.com is offering a good deal on the utility model of General’s Automatic Center Punch, listed for $9.59. You can get fancier models, with steel bodies and replaceable tips, but this one’s definitely a step above the cheaper brass-bodied imports. It’ll work equally well for centerpunching steel or smashing a window on your car as it sinks into a canal.

As you point out – you can spend more or less.
We’ve used Starrett 818’s for many years (they had the original patent) – and they now sell for about $24
We also use a more diminutive General #87 – which is good for fine work – and sells for about $11.
Finally – our carpenters use General #806 punches for hinge work.
