Any idea of what switches does this keyboard have?
« on: Sun, 26 May 2019, 13:29:47 »
A friend of mine sent me some pictures of a keyboard of a friend of him, expecting me to know what switches it had, I tried to look in deskthority in the Cherry MX Mount switches list but found nothing, although they look pretty much like Futabas, they seem to not be, I tried to search the name of a keyboard hoping I could finally know what switches were those, but again, nothing, so if you know what switch this is, let me now.
(The only info we have so far, is that this definitely a clicky switch)

You missed it. It's in there near the bottom. ;)

It is indeed SMK second generation mechanical switch with Cherry MX mount.
Should be clicky. I have not tested this but I have tested Alps-mount clicky SMK and its click is delightful: reminiscent of a Cherry MX Blue but more tactile and without hysteresis.
