Where can I find a custom knob or replacement handle assembly for a seagate?

I believe Alan has a SS arm and handle for that reel.

update:
my seagate 35 knob blew up.  brittle plastic knobs can't withstand private boat abuse?

anyhow, Daiwa was able to put a Saltiga Synthetic Football Knob on for under $20.
it's Daiwa's answer to the Penn Football knob.   this knob is larger than the stock plastic knob but smaller than the Kolekar knobs.  slightly off centered and off weighted to roll into position.  this knob supposedly has bearings according to daiwa.  "I" didn't put it on so i can't be any more explicit.
