Description
Katana shift knob · 7.8 in (20 cm)
The shift knob that turns heads at every light.
A short katana you hold in your palm: black braided cord wrapped over red panels, a gold dragon end cap and a round dragon guard, on a silver shaft that clamps onto your shift lever.
At about 7.8 in (20 cm) it stands taller than a factory knob, so your hand rests on top of it naturally and it is the first thing anyone notices when they get in the car.
The look
Styled on a katana handle.
The grip copies the way a sword handle is wrapped: black cord crossed in a diamond pattern over a red base, finished with a metal end cap and a round guard, both cast with a dragon relief in gold and gunmetal tones.
This is the short, 7.8 in (20 cm) version of the katana knob, built for a hand that likes something to hold.

Universal fit
Fits the shifter you drive.
Manual shifters
Round manual gear levers whose knob unscrews or pulls straight off. The katana drops on and clamps down.
Gated automatics
Automatic levers that move through a zig-zag gate with a plain knob on top. Swap the knob, keep the shifter.
Every lever size
Adapter sleeves in 8, 9.5, 10 and 12 mm take up the gap on thinner levers for a snug, straight fit.
The knob slides over the lever and six set screws clamp it in place. There is no thread to match, which is why it suits so many cars.
Fitting it
Three steps, one hex key.
- Remove the old knob. Unscrew or pull off your factory gear knob.
- Pick a sleeve. Choose the adapter sleeve that fits snugly over your lever.
- Tighten the screws. Slide the knob on, line it up straight, and tighten the set screws evenly with the hex key.
Snug the screws once more after the first few drives and it stays put.
