I'm very hostile to putting butter in a sandwich.  That's what  mayonnaise and mustard is for! 
We often have smoked salmon and cream cheese bagels at our house and my daughter has started using butter instead of cream cheese!  Hello?? It's in the name!   
Grrrrrr

JFKimberley, maybe we've already covered this, but there must be 20 different sour creams and Creme Fraiche in my grocer's shelves.  Are you sure none of these suit?

So the butter on the sandwich is either:

A.) A moisture barrier

Or

B.) An adhesive

I really like a butter and cheese sandwich. That is one of my Dad's specialties and that's how he made us sandwiches as kids.

The closest approximation I've got in terms of flavour is Greek yoghurt or a good quality creme fraiche, neither of which is sour cream.  Nothing here is quite the right 'sour'.  And certainly nothing is the right consistency.  In the US, sour cream can be dolloped (and I don't know what they served in restaurants, but it sometimes came as scooped balls, like an ice cream scoop or melon ball!).  Here it is practically poured.

How about clotted cream?  I couldn't do it cause it would seem too sweet but it's thick enough.

I would reckon making thick sour cream is easy - most likely just a matter of straining it through muslin or cheesecloth?
