I don't know about cheaper, but I've bought them from Woodcraft. I know they stock some at the store on Independence in Charlotte, but the best selection is from the catalog and ordered from Parkersburg, WV.:saw:

Lee Valley has a selection:

At just a little over 3/8", item 00D47.15 is a 10mm knob for $0.81.

And some others:

http://www.armorplans.com/hardware.htm (61520 3/8 diameter $1.20 $10/10 $44/50)

Woodcraft has them, but they're expensive!

Here is another good on-line resource. They are also a great resource for small hinges used in jewelry boxes and such.

Looks like there is no shortage of suppliers. Here's another one. http://www.whitechapel-ltd.com/

Another one.....

Van Dykes Restorers

http://www.vandykes.com/

I've done business with these folks when my wife and I redid the house we're living in. They have a wide range of hardware and other tools, finishes, and other items too numerous to list.

Don't forget McMaster-Carr, which also has 480,000 hardware items you can get at extremely fair prices and in a day or two (regular shipping price sometimes reaches me in Apex overnight!).

FWIW, I had checked McMaster, Horton, and Van Dyke's, but they don't have brass ones that type and/or size.

I haven't seen Whitechapel. They're expensive there, too, but a good find on that one, Bill. Bookmarked.

I should have also mentioned Hafele, they have a huge selection.

I have bought a bunch of knobs, hinges, drawer slides, and other hardware from Woodworker's Hardware http://wwhardware.com/. At pretty good prices too.

I have some that I have not used for years. I do not remember where I got them. If you haven't gotten any yet, I'll let you have some of mine. These are brass - made in China (too bad - most everything is now), but for a fellow NCWWer, the price is right -free... How many do you need? Send me a PM. Matt...
