Try here .. here .. here .. here .. here .. here ..  etc.  Apparently .. the quality of the repro's is nothing to brag about. 

Some real ones here.

Looks like the Weapons Universe link has the best one, with a brass handle.

Thank you Dale and JJ,

The link to the real ones is amazing! The reviews of each knife are a good read too, funny quote below.

"This is a very comfortable knife to hold (considering it is a knuckle knife)"

I haven't checked all the links for repros yet, the knife was featured in Boardwalk Empire so there are probably a ton of cheaply made ones.

I've looked through those repro links and I'm going to keep looking.

Those ones miss the elegance of form the originals have.  Thanks though.
