Comments on Keygeek Blue Cheese V1 switches
Blue Cheese is the latest switch from Keys in Cheese Studio who designed HMX Cheese one of the most popular HMX switches of 2024 – KeebzNCables.
If you loved our original Cheese Switch, you're in for a treat. After 8 months of development and fine-tuning, we are thrilled with how the Blue Cheese Switch turned out. Inspired by blue cheese, this switch features light blue and cheese colors. We wanted to create a switch with a completely different vibe from the original Cheese Switch. After countless tweaks to the lubrication, we have achieved an incredibly smooth feel. While the original Cheese Switch had a poppy and clacky sound, the Blue Cheese offers a deep thocky typing sound – Keys of Cheese Studio.
