Replacement knobs for my Polytone?

Somewhere between staying at my friends' house in Jacksonville, to the truck, to my house, I seem to have lost my volume knob to my Mini Brute. I checked the bed of my truck, and called one of the friends that lives at the house, and no luck finding it anywhere. So, I was wondering, what should I do for a replacement knob? I understand it's near impossible to contact Polytone. But is there a way to order a replacement knob? Or will a universal volume knob work in a Polytone?

A pic might help. The Polytone that I am trying to fix has a stacked volume / distortion knob that might be hard to replace, but the other knobs are a standard "spline shaft" that would be easy to replace.

Yeah, my Polytone's volume knob isn't a stacked one; that's on the treble/mid adjustment. I just sort of wanted to keep a matching knob for the amp, but I'm guessing it won't be hard to find something that matches close enough?
