Know before you buy
The HKP Specter is designed for any keyboard that uses Cherry MX style switches or clones with a standard cross-shaped stem. It is compatible with the vast majority of mechanical keyboards on the market.
The keycap features translucent eyes that allow the light from your keyboard's switch LED to shine through. For the best effect, ensure your keyboard has per-key lighting or an LED positioned directly under the switch where you plan to install the cap.
This artisan keycap is crafted from high-quality resin. It offers a solid, durable feel and a smooth finish that distinguishes it from standard mass-produced ABS or PBT plastic keycaps.
This listing is for a single, artisan-crafted keycap. It is intended to be used as a decorative accent piece, typically placed on an Escape key or a function row key.
Resin keycaps are durable but should be handled with care to avoid scratches. If you need to clean it, use a soft, dry microfiber cloth; avoid using harsh chemicals or alcohol-based cleaners that could damage the finish.
