Is this part made new today? Anybody know where?
I'd consider a lightly used one.. around 220 steer length (not sure at present). Prefer threadless.. a threaded might work also.

Does it have to be aluminum? That will make it tough. Surly offers their Cross Check fork in 1" threadless but it's steel.

Bike shops are a good place to ask, still .. Kinesis was one welded unicrown type.
BITD the Italian AlAn made competition cyclocross racing bikes with aluminum steerer and a steel steerer forks.. they were lively , particularly under braking .
blades were screwed into the fork crown the both bent to rake, at the builders shops .

If you're interested, you could upgrade to carbon. Nashbar 1" cantilever fork is $125

Yes ....aluminum only.
