Nope, you can't.
The veterans holding these keycaps not even want to let go.
Just wait another massdrop someday.

dear sifus, am looking at few keyboards (full size, cherry browns):
Filco majestouch 2 ninja/ ducky zero/ ducky zero shine/ rosewill RK-9000/ DECK Hassium Pro

Few questions:
1. Are detachable cables actually useful? or will permanently attached ones last as long as the keys
2. Which build quality is better amongst the 5? Heard Filco is better, hence the price.

Thanks!

Filco the best. flex.gif

Is deck really that exp?
lingloong in garagesale selling 4XX price... https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/3160476
not that far off from filco/ other brands also leh.

not planning to change my keycaps... getting a MKB also a stretched budget for me edi. haha.

Deck expensive because it gives doubleshot pbt backlit to customers.
Why in M'sia cheap? because you won't get doubleshot pbt backlit here.
They just give cheapdirt abs backlit like other brands did.

So, pricing is justified to be cheaper here.

Hi guys, first post here. I'm planning on doing a mixed switch mod for my poker 2 that currently has browns. I wanna replace all the modifier keys with reds and put blues for the enter, esc, and maybe backspace and space too. I'm also thinking of putting a green switch on capslock just because.

Do you guys know where I can order these switches that'll ship quickly to Malaysia? I know there's a guide on how to order from Taobao but I was wondering if there was an easier way...

Right now I'm willing to pay RM 300 as a start.  That's based on nil experience real life usage, since I've never own one before (hence not able to appreciate the real value of mkb yet).
Depending on how it turns out I might increase my budget.

Hopefully the loaner will help me skip this step and decide on a good purchase in one go. tongue.gif

May I know what mkb loaner is that? switch? or loan you a kibot to test?
You can search the forum and find out who is the loaner.
I'm join this club for some time, never heard of loaner.

Summon Founder of MKB Club Moogle Stiltzkin for query of mkb loaner.

Any good Wireless Mechanical Keyboard recommendation guys?

Can be bought locally, I dont want the hassle of shipping in the item with warranty stripped away and waiting long time.

I have a few wired mechanical keyboard, my most recent ones is Razer branded but the cable at the keyboard joint broken, intermittently disconnects when I move the keyboard just a little.

I am using my computer on a couch, an awkward position for a wired keyboard, resulted a broken cable because too much moving around.

Filco Minila. It's using 60% standard layout.

Filco Majestouch Convertible 2. Full layout.

Hi, i'm a newbie to mech keyboards.

My budget is around RM500.

What brand should i go for?

I prioritise Cherry MX Blue and build quality over anything.

I don't really mind about the backlighting, i think it's a gimmick and i don't wanna stress when one of the LEDs die.

Been looking at DAS, anyone got any other recommendations?

Cheers.
*
Your only choice is Filco Majestouch 2 TKL.
It has quality and MX Blue. Suitable for you. It's non-LED.
No need see other brands for now, coz you only need Filco.

kthxbye. brows.gif

Note: Not trolling, it's serious recommendation.

Hi sifus want to ask your expertise on this.

i saw this IBM Terminal keyboard Model M 1397000 or 1397003 few days ago at my workplace and they are willing to let go off it for cheap. Pic for reference user posted image

but i notice its port is using some sort jack that looked like LAN cable (i think its RJ45). is there anyway i could make it to run with the current gen PC?

Any sifu can answer this? sad.gif

Wow, what's with the Filco hype within the mech keyboard community? How much does this model cost in RM?
*
Before GST is RM 369 (iinm). Now probably around RM 4xx.
Because Filco produce keyboard that have zero RMA and solid keyboard.
The keyboard worth every ringgit you spend.
Enthusiasts and sifus are all have at least 1 Filco. icon_idea.gif

Reminder note: Filco is non-LED keyboard.

QUOTE(Eclipse123 @ Aug 5 2015, 10:37 AM)
Thanks for the recommendation. Do you know any Filco models with blank keycaps?
*
Blank keycaps, you have to buy separately (after market keycaps).
Filco only have side/front printed keycaps. They don't provide blanks.

As much as i wanna get a Filco, I don't think I will be willing to shell out RM500 for a keyboard.

I'll probably end up with a low end ducky.

Anyone had experiences with Ducky Zeros?
*
Ducky Zero is good enough. It's made in China. Still quality is good.

Guys, what u think about corsair k70 non rgb? Planning to get that but is it worth it? Is there any other mkb that within that price range that is worth to get it?
*
How much is the price? Not worth btw, because this K70 backlit (non-RGB) has bad reputation because high rates of dying LED.
You can search the previous mkb thread for it. sad.gif
