nice find, I did a search but came up short, except for vintage ones. I don't have any metal drippers and they aren't my first pick but for something like camping I would definitely use them as the go to. did some more digging and it seems to be a 3 hole design. available in a few other places like Walmart Canada (not sure if walmart US has it)

See them on Amazon, but reviews are not promising and looks like it might take a while to come from China ....

Interesting comment on Amazon that the bottom is two layers of metal where the holes are so that coffee gets trapped in between the layers.

Why strange? You can see in the photo where the base is tack welded to the cone. It's not surprising at all that liquid gets siphoned in between.

other metal brewers sort of "sit-in" and sink below another piece that lets it rest on the rim of a mug. This other piece doesn't come in contact with the drawdown and it sits on the outside walls. Seems this brewer has a bit of a design flaw.

Guys I finally got this today from China via ebay. It took 20 days . I like the product and it's good . Well made stainless with copper like brushed exterior.
One small caveat is since there are no internal ridges at the bottom near the holes, water drip rate is a bit slow. I place a stainless thin gauge wire and it helps with the water flow. Good Melitta style brewer in metal finally and thanks to Chris for helping find it.
