In my case, the original knobs were perfectly concentric in that the shaft holes were centered properly. Unfortunately however, those were the ones that cracked. Both sets of replacements that I received from Elecraft had off-centered shaft holes. This is the reason why I ended up purchasing the machined knobs from Mouser.
