Comments on Invokeys Black Sesame V2 switches | Comments on JWK Ultimate Black switches |
Inspired by black sesame desserts, the Black Sesame switches are the third member of our Artisanal Switch series. As part of our continued effort with Aflion to make the best out-of-the box switches, the Black Sesames are hand-lubed from the factory. As the second linear in our line-up, we started with a lengthened spring to provide a snappier feedback, but kept the lighter spring weight that we love and prefer. The dustproof stem provides nearly no stem wobble throughout its travel, producing a balanced, deep, and pronounced sound – Invokeys. | JWICK Black Linear are serious contenders to the Gateron Oil Kings for a fraction of the price. The factory lubing job has been done incredibly well and most people will be satisfied with the stock experience. Compared to the Oil Kings the JWICKs have a sly deeper clack which makes the switch sound a little more quiet in comparison. Comes in two different weights 58.8g / 63.5g bottom out – beaverkeys. |
