Pretty pricey, I'd say.  I found a similarly-long bolt at the hardware with
the same thread (took in a wheel bolt, matched a nut, matched the long
bolt).  I cut off the head and sawed a screwdriver slot in it.  I don't
have the nifty knurling, but the bolt still works just dandy.  I think that
long a metric bolt of that heft cost me ~$3.
