Unicomp Ultra Classic Model M Black Buckling Spring 104 Key USB Keyboard

The 'Ultra Classic' Model M buckling spring keyboard has the same mechanism, feel and layout as the original IBM Model M keyboard, but with a smaller footprint. With the much-loved buckling spring key design and fully swappable keycaps, these keyboards have been prized by computer enthusiasts and robust typists because of the tactile and auditory feedback of each keystroke. Unicomp has been making the Model M keyboard for IBM and others for 20+ years. Manufactured by hand in Lexington, Kentucky, our buckling spring keyboard is a heavy, audible keyboard with a gorgeous finish reminiscent of the classic IBM Model M keyboard. Buckling Springs originated in IBM's mechanical keyboard as a fundamentally different kind of switch mechanism. Featuring a coil spring that sits between the keycap and a pivoting hammer that collapses when clicked, the spring provides a loud, tactile feedback. Model M-Inspired Keycaps The gray buckling spring keycaps are made of PBT polymer. The dye-sublimated legends compliment the authentic feel and classic design.
