It's possible that Digikey don't sell one in the same way that potentiometer
manufacturers leave it to panel hardware vendors to make and sell control knobs.

You need a 'fader knob' e.g.

Try "slidepot knobs" or "slide pot knobs" - try it with and without
the quotes; sometimes that makes a difference.

Good Luck!
