Hi guys, this is CMM.Studio Freather again. It is the third time greeting you guys this week, and we are dropping one last IC for the week.
As many of the community member wondered, what is the keyboard on the Rifen JTK NightSakura’s IC renders, and how to get it. Well, after a long wait, we are happy to release the official IC for Fuji65 for international GB.
But hold on a second first, let me introduce NightSakura. NightSakura is one of our studio members, and he is active under same name in Chinese Keyboard community. He owns the right for this kit. It is not included in our studio’s line up.
The original concept behind the kit is pretty simple. Nightsakura has always love the Japanese element, and felt perhaps putting it on the keyboard would look lit. Therefore, a Japanese themed Fuji65 was born.
On the design side, the general theme is simplicity, with sakura flower badge changeable in character and flower. (Cuz his name is sakura!)
The backside consists of inert method weight. Kudos to TGR! To accompany the name of the kit, we designed a Mountain Fuji shaped back plate to fit the keyboard scheme.
Without further speaking, here are some confirmed info:

Any images of low spec backplate? (also what options of badges do we have?)
Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk
Low spec backplate is the carbon fibre and the badges are between the kanji or the cherry blossom

Rifen, you may not be here in GH, but i hope this reaches you.
Please make this unlimited (and 1 time deal if you want) so more people in this hobby will enjoy this beautiful work.
I mean FCFS, Raffles and Limited Board release = Flippers Screaming in Joy. Though this seems to be the thing right now if you wanted to make a quick name for yourself quick.

I would be very interested in a split BS option, but excited none the less!
Would second this. Especially since there is already one less key position with the badge; having \| and `~ with R2 Backspace would allow people who use grave-tilde (or whichever key would be assigned to that position) to access that without a function layer.

While Im very interested, I cant help but notice the design is very, very similar to Iron165 from Smith+Rune...
Other than the badge what else is stimulating thoughts of similarity? Otherwise this could be said about many boards.
“𝙁𝙖𝙞𝙩𝙝 𝙞𝙨 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙗𝙞𝙧𝙙 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙛𝙚𝙚𝙡𝙨 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙡𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩 𝙬𝙝𝙚𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙨𝙠𝙮 𝙞𝙨 𝙨𝙩𝙞𝙡𝙡 𝙙𝙞𝙢.”

The simplistic design, almost-thin bezel, arrows blocker, badge at top right corner? I completely agree many keyboards out there share these traits, but not the combination of all of them in 1 go

I disagree, the most unique and coolest (in my opinion) about the iron 165 is the really unique back which is completely different from this keyboard.
(https://i.imgur.com/2yDtO34.jpgp)
I would say this is closer in layout and inspiration from a lot of newer TKL's other than the top right badge.

(Gonna build my first pc and since no graphic cards are available I don’t need a keyboard yet hahahah sadness) buuuut I was wondering: if someone manages to acquire one of these flat top mountain themed gems, when would you think you would be able to ship these to the lowly humans who adore it?

I was wondering what the measurements were for the screws used to mount the backplate to the bottom case. I think the worst part aesthetically of the entire build is those screws, so I'm interested in finding some aftermarket anodized screws in the color of my planned build. If that information is already published somewhere, or can be published, I would be greatly appreciative. Thanks!
They updated the backplate to hide the screws. If you're still looking for the measurements of the screws, you could ask on their discord. https://discord.com/invite/ugYpvPNr74
