Mizuno 01?? M craft is nice. And the new ones come out in 2 days. 

This is the only one that I have seen that has the "Flow Jet" neck like Cam's. Snagged the Black ION 01 yesterday and it's as close as you can get for retail. Obviously not the exact shape as a 009 but for a blacked out/FlowJet/blade style putter it's a close 2nd. Also comes with the step-less KBS Tour Black ION plated 4i shaft.

Agree that Lajosi makes the closest thing. Here’s mine:

 

 

Angles are hard and sharp. Top line is flat enough to serve dinner on. Bumpers were close to the only 009 I've touched. But, if you're in love with the idea of owning a 009 then mentally nothing is going to live up to actually owning a 009. Either spend the money or find a new muse.

 

I love my G7 from Goodwood and currently, there is no other putter I want in my hand. Not having to drop my mortgage payment to get there is an added bonus.

Giannini legacy 3 is more the 2.5 style w/out rounded bumpers. Quite possibly the best feeling putter on earth. So clean.

Check out Stokes Gained putters. Custom options on order should get you exactly what you’re looking for.

That’s a really cool workaround. Can you post a picture of the toe hang? How much did the head weigh?

Unfortunately I didn’t weigh it without or with the neck. I wanted to but got in a hurry to build. The neck is solid stainless and does add some weight. The picture is with an original anser 2 on the left. It has substantial toe hang and that’s what I wanted as I normally play a napa/8802 putter. I can tell you with the black steel kbs putter shaft playing at roughly 34.5 inches its swing weight is D9-D9.5 higher swing weight than I expected but right where I wanted it. I would guess the head with neck is in the 340 range.
