aftermarket 1 1/8 steel/carbon fork with fender eyelets?

hey, i have a jamie roy frame without a fork that i'm looking to equip as my winter bike. i was wondering if anyone had any good suggestions on a fork i could use that has fender eyelets and has a 1 1/8 threadless steerer? i can't seem to find any, and the ones i do find are CX forks (which would probably work, but i would like to see if there are any other options).

How about IRD? Soma sells them on this page, but I'm sure there are other places to get them. Looks like the steerer is alloy, but it has a Tange Prestige logo on the blades on the IRD site. I'm not sure what that's about. It has eyelets and clearance for big tires but takes a long reach caliper.

Salsa Cycles has a 1 1/8 carbon fork with fender eyelets on their La Raza frame. I looked through their website and did not see the fork offered separately, but that does not necessarily mean they won't sell one either. Your LBS may very well may be able to order one, and if you want to contact them directly the email is pman@salsacycles.com.
Good luck,
