Need Marbles 3/8 tang nut specs

Does anyone know the thread specs for a 3/8 inch tang nut used on marbles knives? I have lightly buggered up a couple of tang nuts tightening handles, see offerings on amazon for 10 nut sets in various thread pitch sizes, and considering purchasing some of these for replacements. Would 1/4 - 20 be correct?
Thanks!

I hope this helps-

Here's a more detailed breakdown:
• Tang Nut Size:
The pommel nut that secures the handle to the tang is typically 3/8 inch or 1/2 inch in diameter. 





• Thread Size:
If you need to replace or repair a tang nut, it's likely to be 1/4-20 or 1/4-24. 





• Material:
Marble's tang nuts are commonly made of brass, but stainless steel options are also available.
