Cheapskate!
If you really need/want it, why not have one made. I’d expect to pay half the chandlery price.
I’ve never seen one before, I’ve never considered it a possibility of losing my anchor. If I did I’d simply use some rope to tie it down. One less obstruction on deck to stub your toe on or trip over.
I would not leave port without an anchor clip. Trusting the anchor on the winch clutch alone and the potential damage it could do are not worth it

I know tow people who have lost anchors. Loosing the anchor is no issue. The damage it does is.
One was a windy. It wrapped round the props and trashed the lot.
Other was a bigger boat. Anchor deployed in heavy weather. No damage.

You need to save your pennies for new turbos....super chargers......med mechanic prices etc....

Please don't tell me that you don't tie your anchor down.
For the same reason as others on here have said, you shouldn't rely on the cone clutch to hold your anchor in place.
