Black Threaded Fork???

Alright, i have been looking around for a 150-170 black threaded soma track fork and they seem to be extinct. It seems like the only place it isnt sold out is in the soma online store but it seems overpriced compared to the other sites i've looked at. Is there anything else out there that i dont know about? I am kinda partial to getting a threaded fork and am willing to drop no more than 120. thanks

I think Spicer sells black threaded forks that may be the same as the Kilo TT fork.

i was able to find a pretty cheap fork that is 170mm/50 mm rake. my headtube is 90mm. ideally i would want a 150 but this size fork should work right??? worst case i just take some length off or add spacers??? just need some reassurance before i make the purchase.
