Thank you for the suggestion but I'm afraid this knob was simply too old and there were no salvageable parts.

Hello Joy, in many cases you should be able to use the part from the old knob and it should match up with a new knob. Take that paart along to the hardware store.

Good day listers, I wondered if anyone might know of an online source for doorknobs for older doors. I have a wooden front door that is much thicker than its modern counter parts, and so I cannot find an spindle? axis? (not sure of the correct term) long enough to go through and fit knobs on each end. Its doorknob gave out sometime ago and after searching all the local stores (not many, I'm in a rural area) I ended up replacing it with a knob for an interior door which is not going to last long. Any suggestions as to where I might look would be greatfully received.
