Re'an knobs - new manufacturer?

Everybody was saddened when the news surfaced that Re’an knobs are no longer available.

Today I went to www.reanknobs.com and … the web site is the same but there is a different manufacturer on the top left. Does anybody have any knowledge of this? Perhaps all those sexy soft-touch knobs are coming back?

There’s no shortage of Re’an knobs over at Rapid in the UK as long as you’re looking for P670, P300, P570 and P861 with various caps. They also have a good selection of Sifam knobs. All of this is for splined T18 shafts though.

Little help

is splined different that knurled?

I know “D” shaft and knurled shaft…what is splined?

Thanks

Same thing usually.

Knurled shaft:

Splined shaft:

Sometimes you also see serrated shaft, or T18.
