Review Drop Tokyo60 Keyboard Kit Review: The Affordable, Aluminum HHKB

[Admin]

The Tokyo60 from Drop and Tokyo Keyboard is a solid, if stiff, keyboard kit that you can buy right now. It requires basic mods to sound its best, and the form factor takes some getting used to, but if you’re looking for an all-metal HHKB, this is a decent option at a reasonable price.

And it's out of stock. I wouldn't get too hung up on case material, especially with inexpensive hollow aluminum cases. The PFU HHKB Pro Classic is $211 and ready to go out of the box. If you want to go the custom route, with the right switches, the Rama Kara is outstanding and readily available on Reddit because so many people can't adapt to the HHKB layout so they come up for sale often with little or no use. Or if you don't think you're up for adapting to the HHKB layout, just go with one of the numerous excellent entry-level hot-swap 65% options in this price range.

I bought a Tokyo60 to fit my small office desk. It's really nice to own a keyboard with replaceable / customizable parts. I ended up loving the HHKB layout and bought another for home.
If you can wait, the kits come up for around $100 on Ebay.
