[Elecraft] The K2 Tuning Knob Discussion and Idea

My preference is for a Titanium knob with an Inconel insert on the face 
with the Elecraft logo and my callsign engraved on it. Preferably, use 
recycled Inconel, say, from the afterburner can of a GE J-79 turbojet. 
The high temperatures and JP4 soot give the Inconel a nice patina.
