Default Tube style shift knob

I don't know if tube style shift knob is the proper term but I am looking for something like this in this post:

I like how its clean with no writing or designs, anyone know of a company that sells a shift knob like this ?

I tried the Auger knob but found the height too high. I lowered it by drilling and tapping an additional .5" of threading, better but still the throws were too long. I went back to the Voodoo countersunk aluminum.

Did you use the shifter as a joystick per se or did you keep your hands on top of the shifter when shifting ? I believe the draw to this style shifter is to hold it towards the middle of the shift knob when shifting as apposed to keeping your hand on top. what did you think about the weight of the shifter?
