Know before you buy
This keycap is designed for any keyboard using Cherry MX style switches, which feature the standard cross-shaped stem. It is compatible with most mechanical keyboards, including those from brands like Ducky, Corsair, and Keychron.
The keycap is designed with translucent sections in the eyes. When placed on a keyboard with per-key RGB or LED backlighting, the light shines through these sections to create a glowing effect.
Yes, it is handcrafted from high-quality, durable resin. While it is built to withstand regular typing, it is primarily intended as a decorative accent piece rather than for high-traffic keys like the spacebar or alphanumeric keys.
Because of its unique, raised design, it is best suited for keys you don't press constantly, such as the Escape key, function row, or macro keys. This placement highlights the intricate Executioner detail without interfering with your typing ergonomics.
As an artisan product, each keycap is individually cast and finished. While the colorway and design will match the Executioner series, minor variations in the resin finish are expected and contribute to the uniqueness of your specific piece.
