The KBT Pure and Poker lines are similar size and layout, and can be found in a variety of mx switches.

Unfortunately they don't use the Sun type 3's unix style layout, which I think is what OP is looking for. Maybe wait for another round of GH60? (Not sure if that is going to happen but it might be worth a shot to ask)

If there is a second round of gh60, I must join it ;)

There will be loads of GH60 PCBs in the classifieds section soon enough. Keep your eye out.

The poker 2 might be programmable, so you could try getting that and change around the layout.

You could get a new HHKB Pro2 for cheaper than a Kmac happy, IMHO the HHKB is the best 60%.
