Will these spinner knobs fit the Apache?

The one on the apache is just too big and would like something smaller.  If this doesnt work, is there something else i could replace it with?

Here is the info re the GGG spinner 

    Standard 1/4" stainless-steel shaft for the widest possible selection of spinner knobs.

From the Apache Manual

1/4" center shaft

Guess it will fit.

I just put a token top spinner knob from ggg on my spinner (not an apache, though) and its awesome. Great feel and small.
