SA KeyCap Manufacturers

Does anyone other than Signature Plastics manufactures high-profile keycap sets like the SA Ice?  Or any other high-profile variety, for that matter?

These Filco caps are very nice. I have a set on my WASD V2 with blues. But be aware they are not black/white. I'd call the colors coffee & cream.

Those look really nice but are they actually SA or a different spherical profile that filco makes? They just seem different to me. I am also looking for an affordable SA set to see if I like them and those look really nice but I just wanted to make sure.

FIlco SA caps are manufactured by Signature plastics. You often see them in Grab Bags.

There is also the MT3 family which is a new tall spherical keycap family inspired by IBM beamspring keycaps.

Nope. I don't think /dev/tty is even done with production yet.

Yeah they are SA's profile but arranged in 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3.  So only top 2 rows are angled and the bottom 4 rows are flat.

I own a set and PERSONALLY I like all row 3 but that's just me.  :P
