In search of a fork

I'd like to replace the fork I currently have, and while I'm at it, update to a few new standards. What I'm looking for is:

  • Carbon fiber, preferably ALL carbon (steering tube included)
  • Relatively strong (no rack, but I'll have a light touring load)
  • 1 1/8" steering tube (not tapered)
  • ~400 mm crown-to-axle length
  • Clearance for up to ~40 mm tires
  • Boost spacing (110 mm hub width)
  • Mounts for bottle cages
  • Disc brake mount
  • Thru-axle (12 or 15 mm, don't care)
It's hard to do a general search to see if this fork exists at all. Anyone know of one that matches the description? It's a combo of old and new standards, so I haven't been able to find one.

Alternatively, if there's a cromoly fork that checks all these boxes, I might go that direction.
