Not familiar with exactly what you are talking about but Amazon sells universal Dknobs for $8. You put whatever size you need into the knob.

Send me dimensions and I'll 3d print a half dozen to send your way.

Reply to Zephora so he sees it.

Also, 3d print services exist if you can find a model that works online... Or if you have a printer a knob if like. 05c worth of filament.

6mm aren’t necessarily 6mm on Amazon. And when they do fit, they’re not ideal. Typically a hazard for snapping off the rod at the base, so it’s used like a key instead of a perma knob. Presently have another one, but it is 7mm.

I think I’m going to mill one out of wood, drill a hole, place tape across part of that hole, and use resin to make the flat half. Which is ridiculous and tiresome.

Get a 3d printer! I have been printing non stop fixing things.
