While I'm sure B&H sells them, I think I would just grab my umbrella swivel and head down the hardware store and find myself a screw to do the job.

I generally don't even bother tightening that little screw, I just use the one on the flash to hold it in place. (If the screw I'm thinking about is the same one you're talking about that is.)

Outside of going to Home Depot or a hardware store, the easiest thing to do is to just get one of these:

I haven't seen the replacement knurled screw sold alone although it might be available as a replacement part from Smith Victor or one of the other companies making these cold shoes.
