Keebmonkey WK870 Barebones Mechanical Keyboard

The WK870 from Keebmonkey is a top-tier, barebones tenkeyless keyboard with all the right finishing touches—both in its design and for your fingertips. From the matte-finished, sand-blasted aluminum alloy case coating all the way down to the south-facing RGB LED array on the PCB, the WK870’s components all deliver an air of premium form and function. This is carried through to the typing, where gasket mounting provides a modern feel with just the right balance of bounce and stability. Keebmonkey also included dampening foam on the inside of the case to deliver an expectedly pleasant sound while typing—and because the PCB sports hot-swappable switch sockets with support for 3- and 5-pin switches, you can really dial in the sound and experience that you want. Finally, just above the keycaps, a clickable rotary knob puts even more customizable control right at your fingertips. It’s a finishing touch, among many, you’ll want to touch again and again.
