Worse case....you could get a knob at lowes, then buy some threaded rod with the correct thread? Just an idea

The first thing I did after a few trips with our Cedar Creek with residential fridge, was to get rid of that knob. With just the slightest jiggling of the fridge doors going down the 1/4" nut was stripped. I used 2" wide heavy duty velcro, cut 2 4" strips, put 2 little tabs on the box of the fridge and 2 pieces on the fridge doors. when we get to our destination the strips come off and we are good to go. has worked great for 7 years. I bought black velcro at lowes as our fridge is black in color.
