Sup guys. Anyone have any ideas on how to make your own crank knob(don't know the right term) for the speargun reel? I called and looked everywhere but no luck and I don't want to buy a new reel right now.

Just a thought, feel free to ignore if it's not regarding your question or might damage your reel:

Heat up the metal at the end (where the crank shaft is/should be/maybe) with a blow torch (not too much) and get a piece of plastic that you want to be the knob and put the heated metal through it.

Apologies if this is nothing like the answer to your question; I'm a little confused by the reel knob, is that your reel pictured or is that the knob you want?

Cheers
