This one is a copy of a DNA gearknob.
I ordered one from Grassbanks which was nice but they seem to be anodized with a polished section on the centre of the knob to give it "patina" I wasn't keen on this but managed to sand and polish it. Quite a job because of the anodising. I ordered a second for my other build but this one didn't have the thread, just a drilled out sleeve and a grub screw, Easier to fit but not as stable and I don't want to bond it on. I tried sanding and polishing this one to get rid of the "patina" but it has proved to be much harder to get a good finish. Hence the DNA version, not anodized so easy to polish to a mirror finish and has the thread which makes it more stable. OI can get more if anyone wants one or you can get the anodized version from Grassbanks.
