[Elecraft] Tuning knob finish

[Julian (G4ILO)]

I haven't had the problem but I guess it's only a matter of time. I think
there would be enough of a demand for a precision turned, metal tuning knob
with a black anodized finish. Possibly with an indent or a small crank for
tuning. Appearance like the original K2 knob. Anyone know someone who could
make them?

I know some folks have fitted Yaesu knobs to their K2s, but I've seen the
pictures and they don't look right to me.

This is the only gripe I have had with my K2. The knob developed 
shiny metal holes in the matter of a few weeks. I have 'repainted' 
the knob with black car touch up paint and although it looks far from 
pretty ('crackle finish') it has done the job and has not worn off 
again.
