I had a pair of resistor probe-ends made by Sealectro. 5k and 500 Ohm versions. they were short, squat chromed brass with glass bead insulators supporting the spiky bit and a 50 Ohm SMC connector at the other end.

Rather usefully they would plug into HP adaptors intended for their active and vector voltmeter probes.

The 500 Ohm one 'vanished' and people at work dropped the 5k one and the glass bead has broken so it's gone intermittent.

Sealectro are long gone. The chances of ever finding another are roughly zilch.
