The btrfly

The btrfly by SolidusHal is a Dactyl Manuform fork with joint halves and without the keywells (git, pics).

SolidusHal's handwired monoblock btrfly keyboard is like the dactly-manuform-mini but squished together at an angle and flattened.

I used a dactly-manuform-mini for a while, but found it annoying to travel with since it was both bulky and split. While this is still a bit bulky, it fits nicely in the ergotravel case I already have – SolidusHal.
