Daiwa rcs i shape knob help

I broke the black insert tube inside of a rcs knob. I searched online without any luck. Can the insert be purchased anywhere?

By insert you mean the cap? If so, try calling Daiwa or you can order colored ones from Hedgehog Studio

Not the cap but the tube that's inside of the knob

I've never seen that to be replaced.

I have had the cork knobs detach from the tube, but I didn't have luck gluing them back together. Once detached, the knob no longer sat straight on the tube. I have never seen the cheap plastic RCS tubes available separately. Just buy a whole new knob.

I stepped on an RCS Super High Grip knob a while back. The knob came off of the tube, but I think the tube is okay. Here is a picture. It might work for you. I will send it out to you free of charge if you PM me your address. I will just send it in an envelope with a tissue around it.
