CNC73 is or did make a heavy know for the K1. The difference is not as
profound as the K2 and K3 knobs (I have all three). But it helps. The
CNC73 knob is absolutely wonderful on the K3.

I recently bought the 73CNC steel knob for the K2. I still can't
believe I spent $90 for a freakin' radio knob! But I love it, and
would do it again. Totally transformed the feel of that little radio.
Just for fun, I tried it on my K1, but it's too heavy for the wobbly
encoder used in that radio. You can hear it scrapping inside as it
turns. So the old stock K2 knob went on the K1 and transformed that
(my favorite) little radio as well. It needs a slightly bigger knob
and the K2 knob is just right.

When I purchased my first K2 in 2001, I ordered a FT-100 main tuning
knob
from Yaesu to replace the original one from Elecraft. That rig is long
gone and I recently purchased a K2/100 that has the Elecraft knob with a
finger dimple. It's not bad, but I am wondering if anyone has one of
those
FT-100 knobs they don't need and would like to sell. Since the
FT-100 is
out of production, they don't have any. I know there are other
possibilities, but those heavy brass knobs just don't entice me.
Please reply direct.
Tnx & 73,
