There’s keeb & puppy, keeb & shoe, keeb & pen, keeb & random stuff. Why not keeb & shave? For me, shaving and keyboards have a lot in common. Both are tools I use every day, with artisans in both fields making cool (and sometimes expensive) well designed stuff.

I'm not sure what you mean exactly by deeper stagger. Apart from several versions of the Microsoft Ergonomic Keyboard, this is my first experience with a non-standard keyboard, so I don't have much for comparison.

The modifier (command?) keys are all in the thumb cluster. Some people in r/kinesisadvantage use home row mods, but I still struggle with learning to touch type ;-)

The switches cannot be changed without re-soldering.

I constantly flash updates to the layout.

I use a split Helix with the number pad as a hold layer button on my left side. It took some getting used to, and to be fair I still make errors. But I do like the compact size, and ergonomics of the split format.

Although, I would certainly not be opposed to using a separate number pad. Mainly for the fun of building it though.

Yap, I have bought the Q2 when it was in sale so I have paid it (with shipping costs) 160€, if was at full price I fill like you can get something better like the nk65 from novelkeys or if you want to go a little bit lower with the price but with a lot of value (I didn't try it but everyone seem enjoying it) you can get the Finalkey v65.

Btw I'm really happy you like it :)
