Know before you buy
The Royal UNFU*K is designed for any keyboard using MX-style stems, which includes Cherry MX switches and most clones. As long as your keyboard uses the standard cross-shaped stem, it will be compatible.
This artisan cap is designed for the R4 row, which is the bottom row of your keyboard where the spacebar, Alt, and Ctrl keys are located.
No, this keycap is made from solid, custom-milled aluminum, so it is not translucent. The laser-marked design will not allow any light to pass through the cap.
Because it is machined from aluminum, this cap is significantly heavier and denser than standard ABS or PBT plastic keys. You will notice a distinct, solid tactile feel and a slightly different sound profile when you press it.
The cap features a high-quality anodized finish, which is chemically bonded to the aluminum for superior durability. While it is much more resistant to wear than painted plastic, it should still be handled with care to maintain its matte appearance.
