Hey guys, I started HMKnobs with my dad by just making little random knobs for guys round town. I then posted pictures on some local drifting forums and they seem to have alot of fans. I try to create the best quality shift knob at a price that can't be beaten. You'll be getting a high quality 6061, steel inserted, HAND MADE shift knob at a great price.

HM stands for handmade. None of these knobs are ever going to see a cnc. All these knobs are cut by me with all manual tooling. It's something im very proud of.

Here are some of the basic characteristics of the shift knobs.

-All are hand crafted
-Made from 6061 aluminum
-Steel inserted (I know that in motorsports a shift knobs rigidity can be tested and this causes me to never question it breaking)
-All leave in packaging with a nice hand polished finish
-The sizing is a choice of 4" 6" or the vip 12".
-(CURRENTLY) Im only making m10x1.25 threaded shift knobs. So pretty much any nissan, mitsu, FD rx7's, and many others. But this will change very soon. If you are not sure what your thread pitch is please pm me and ill locate this information for you.

Turn-around time
-Please expect there to be a week for production. I get MOST done in two days but being that I do this one the side and i do it for such a low price that I can't make it my main source of income so I do have other jobs.

Pricing
-Please inquire via pm.
-Grooving and tapering is at no extra cost.

Here are some pics for you guys. I have some pics of the cars running my shift knobs and some detailed pics of the style of shift knob itself.

Anodizing is available for this model for a little extra chedda. Some of the future prototypes will come in the basic form with the anodizing.

Please pm me if you feel you are interested in adding a anodized shift knob to your car. I can make it happen in a timely manner as well.

Thanks.

curious if these knobs fit like stock knobs and go down to where it meets the boot. i know most aftermarket knobs just cover the threading, any pics of one installed in a 240?

I can not currently do ball style. But look out for many new styles next week :-) i will have a few diffrent choices in finish that i will have in stock as well. Such as wrinkle black, satin bead blasted finish, raw machined finish, and the polished finished.

Im excited to see finishes othe than polished. Will these finishes increase the price?

HMKnobs
10-01-2011, 05:30 PM
The only one that may increase the price is wrinkle black. But im goin to try my best and either not change the price or make it a minimal increase (somewhere round 5 dollars or less)

Well I got my shift knob today and as soon as I opened the package I installed it on my car:-) The quality is amazing and the threading is spot on. I was also happy to see that Adam even took the time to add a lil bit of grease to the threading. A lil simple touch that makes all the difference when installing the shift knob for the first time. Overall, I'm really happy with the quality of the product. Thanks Adam. Keep on doing what your doing.
