Fat Franks are great tires, like a Very Big Apple. But their tread isn't knobby enough for sloppy surfaces; they're great gravel or dry dirt tires.
For a Schwalbe knobby, the Smart Sam looks like a winner. Available in 55 and 60 mm widths in 559/26" diameter. Schwalbe's Nobby Nic looks a little faster than the Smart Sam, and the Thunder Burt is even faster (center file tread, outer knobs). I've had a good experience with WTB Mutano tires on my 26er trail bike. They're fast and have enough tread for occasional slop. Mine were listed as 2.4" wide, but they're really more like 2.2" wide on average-width rims.
