I've bought all mine from sharp shooters supply, but brownells sells them as well. I'm sure ther are more vendors than this, these are just the ones I'm for sure on.

Brownells has the fat knob handle that comes on the model 12s in stock. If you want the teardrop shaped handle, SSS is probably your best bet.
Stockade has some nice ones that are knurled in 2 sizes. I also use the SSS handle just depends what the rifle will be used for.
SSS
Stockade and they have a bolt lift kit for less than 10.00 and it makes it easier to cock the thing.Kevin and janet rayhill are very nice people to deal with.
Personally, I just prefer to gind the knob down and thread it. Then I can put on what ever knob I want and I am out $20. I have badger ordanace on a couple, EQW on a couple. I usually use epoxy once I get them on and like the way they look and operate. Just my .02
These are awesome:

When they become available I will buy a couple more.
The knurling on some of the others is hard on your hands, I prefer a smooth bolt handle.
The factory Savage BT style over size bolt knobs are great also.
Glad to see an endorsement from someone who's used them. Of those I've seen, this is my favorite style.Quote:

Nice of SSS to let us know they're closed. I've been waiting on a bolt handle from them over a month.Quote:

Just an FYI I called to order one from SSS sometime around the 8th I think and was told the foundry that casts them was two weeks behind due to holiday shut down. I figured it might be sometime in Feb before I get mine since the they're closed for the SHOT show but I placed an order anyway.
heck I have been waiting 3 months :oQuote:

I just ordered mine from Savage,....20 bucks. More of the ball end though not as cool as SSS.
Stockade almost always has them in stock, and you will have it in less than a week. Kevin always ships stuff priority mail.
I have a couple of both SSS and Stockade handles, and like both of them about the same. If you dont like the knurls on the Stockade you can always grind them off and polish it.
