Sadly Kirk no longer make the BLK7 - I assume there was not enough demand.
They do still make a universal one.
RRS do make one for the K7/K5.
Not cheap and only for Arca Swiss heads.

There is also this one on e-bay.

Thanks for the info Gwyn, I guess the Mestos plate is pretty much universal?

It says it is for the K-5 and K-7. I think they make others for other makes and models.

I was going to buy a Kirk one but the price put me off. The RRS one is offset, which puts me off (plus the price!). The Mestos looks to be aligned, and a better price. I'm tempted, but don't have the money right now.
Again it is only for Arca type heads.

Thanks for that Shaun, very informative. It's uncanny but he has his camera set up almost exactly the same as I do!
