The keyswitches themselves are Cherry ones.  Appropriate enough for a cherrywood keyboard, I guess, but I would have preferred oak beam springs.  If you like this one also check out the Scrabble keyboard: http://www.datamancer.net/keyboards/scrabble/scrabble.htm

Hooohh man, is it just me or are those datamancer keyboards all just unforgivably tacky? It's probably just me, but I can't stand 'IRL' steampunk stuff. Beautifully constructed but... why?

They used cherry wood....

I feel like this is the result of a cherry keyboard joke taken too far.

Unlike Ripster, who has a very discerning "palette" (sic) (http://geekhack.org/showthread.php?23717-****-Occupy-Wall-Street-Just-****-Those-****ing-Hipsters!&p=524235&viewfull=1#post524235).
