Does anybody know of a vendor that still sells it?  Are
there any special precautions or procedures for using this solder?

Any quality solder will work. You just have to assemble the K-1 in a vacuum
chamber to out-gas the connections. Remember to hold your breath to avoid
contamination.

Actually, it is OK to not hold you breath.  The secret is to not exhale...

As for how long you can hold your breath in a vacuum, I refer you to Arthur Dent.
