Very true. I’ve had the same experience. Stock factory lube feels as smooth as 205g0 hand-lubed.

Nice board and nice Keycaps! Maybe the photo could have been a bit improved by less harsh lighting and /or a bit less contrast. But maybe that is just me.

it's the domestic (aka) chinese version, which comes in a matte sakura pink. the one on the monsgeek site is the international version, which is more of an anodized aluminum rose gold color.

Ok fair enough, I apologize, I didn’t mean to be rude to you specifically. It’s hard to explain the cutout in words, but if you find side pictures of CJ’s/Oil Kings and any KS-3 switch (e.g., milky yellow), you’ll see what I mean

Love the idea but I don’t like laying my carts down like that. I find that it will screw with the ease of hit and introduce potential issues, so I make sure to try and keep them upright.

I honestly couldn’t tell much of a difference from the video. I do have Oil Kings on my board and there is a slight difference in sound, but I wouldn’t say one sounded better than the other. I also agree there is no change in smoothness.
Personally I don’t think these are worth lubing. The main allure of the Oil Kings is the stock performance. There are cheaper options for those willing to put with the labors of lubing.

You can swap the numpad on the everest keyboard but that's considerably more expensive

Actually you should keep your oil pen cartridges upright at all times
