Wood is certainly not the most common material, when it comes to keyboards, but it‘s an essential part of the @typ.face Kafka 65%. It is available as a pre-built hall effect or - if you like things more classical - as a MX kit. The board can be purchased as a group buy that will be concluding soon, so if you are in the market for a really outstandingly designed 65% keyboard, you should act now. The board is available from vendors like @monacokeys and @jae_prototypist .

The Kafka — where aesthetics, performance, and value come together.
Whether you’re chasing peak gaming performance or a beautifully designed MX keyboard that feels as good as it looks, Kafka delivers.
Kafka by @typ.face is a promising sold-as-fully-built 65% for HE switch users. Super attractive design that sports a simple and clean profile, and elegance from its wooden front accent and large brass weight. I have tried only a few HE builds and this has been my favorite. There'll also be an MX compatible barebones kit.
GB begins Jan 28 and pricing for kits starts at $229.
Built with Geon RAW HE switches and WoB ABS doubleshots that come included

The Kafka is amazing HE keyboard experience.
What a joy this was to put together and use. Not only does it sound great, but it is absolutely stunning to look at. I also heard this made be coming out as a barebones board so people can use MX and I am HERE for it. This already a mainstay in my keyboard rotation.

Typography has always been at the core of my design journey. So discovering a keyboard named after a typeface, and the mind behind it, @typ.face , immediately felt familiar.

Available on Jan 28th, preorders will be open for 18 days. There are 3 case colors, 2 types of wood, 2 keycap choices (ds abs), and 3 switches you can pick from. While the HE keyboard kit will be fully assembled, there will also be barebone MX kits too. The fully assembled cases will start at $250 but the MX barebones (hotswap or solder) will be around $170/$180.
Kafka uses a Venom PCB and is pretty great feeling and sounding for a HE board. I found myself enjoying it a lot, despite not knowing too much in depth about HE.

The Kafka proves a prebuilt HE keyboard doesn’t have to look like a gamer spaceship. It’s clean and tasteful with a wooden accent that makes a real statement. And for an HE board the sound is surprisingly good. 👀
Full sound test coming soon. Follow @typ.face to stay locked in for the drop on January 28th!
