Klister is a Dutch term to describe a number of bulbs tightly joined 
together (in a cluster). But have not seen it as sales term used for 
any  Hippeastrum. Instead these klister bulbs are sold as Hippeastrum 
multiflora. Most notably sold as the garden series like white garden, 
happy garden, red garden and yellow garden. Google will certainly list 
some vendors that have them in their assortment.
