Looking for a film spool knob (upper) for my 3.5F.
My camera has the Rolleikin counter knob and I would like to replace it with the original knob.

Please let me know if you have one available. Or if you know a store that I can buy from.

Thanks!

You'll probably have to find a repair tech who'll sell you one from a parts camera. You might try Paul Ebel in Wisconsin. He may be retired now.

Occasionally you'll find one included with a used Rolleikin kit (minus the big counter knob) on ebay.
Here's a current example:

If you're lucky you may latch onto one which matches the knurling on your remaining one.

Thank you folks for your responses. I found a Rolleikin kit with the F knob.
The counter knob that I already have will complete the kit for 35mm use Maybe I will even give 35mm film a try.

You should try it at least once and is great for portraits.
