Welcome to the Club, Jeff. That knob is not a structural part. Might find a suitable replacement in the Cabinet section of big hardware store.

McMaster-Carr is also a really good place to find knobs and other items that once modified as needed and inspected for use can be installed as an owner produced part.

Ace Hardwares that have all those drawers of fasteners. The last row is usually odd ball stuff including threaded knobs. I swear that's where the Cessna buyer got them - same for the knobs on the seat tilt adjust...
