Decent65
By soran & Stormlex
What, why and who?
The general idea behind the
Decent65 was making a classic top mount 65 percent keyboard,
which would have the looks while still maintaining a not
over the top price. So this is a no-fuss, low height board
with bezels on the thicker side.
It was born from an
idea of mine and have been brought to life by soran - who
was responsible for doing the actual design work.
Designed,
engineered and manufactured in Europe. The prototype seen in
the pictures is made by Salvun,
https://www.instagram.com/salvun/, who also will be making the final product.
Features
- 65% keyboard with blocker at arrows
- 6060 aluminum case
- Anodization color options: black, gray and silver, burgundy/dark red and purple
- Semi-fixed aluminum plate in either ANSI or ISO (Plate files will be released if people want to have them made in other materials)
- Top mount
- 7 degrees angle
- Bottom front ledge to keep the front low, just shy of 16 mm (without bumpons)
- Standardized ai03 daughter board with USB C
- Alignment pins for top and bottom
- No internal or external weight
- 1.11 kg (Case+plate) and around 1.4 kg built
- QMK-compatible PCB with JST connector for daughter board
-
Manufactured by Salvun in Belgium
Estimated pricing -

Zambumon “No. Use a daughter board”
..and yes, I noticed that the down arrow in one of the pictures wasn’t properly seated.
Thank you for considering.

Update 2020-03-14
- After some brainstorming, we have decided that the available anodisation colours are going to be:
- Black
- Grey
- Burgundy
-
Dark Purple
- Since I felt that it should be addressed - cerakoting should be around 50 on top of the GB price.
-
Hotswap, rgb or changes to the top (winkeyless, removing
blocker) - are out of question. That part of the design
has be finalized.
Update 2020-03-26
The prototype was sent to soran, got lost due to corona lockdown in Poland, got found again and is now in the hands of soran.
There will hopefully be a build-stream done by him shortly.
We (or well NecromanX atleast) are currently also working on a US/NA proxy since that has been some comments on that in the IC form.
Stay tuned
Update 2020-04-04
We have an approximate go-live date fellas!
April 18:this the goal to get this started,
and there is now an US proxy onboard; the
esteemed NovelKeys.
Last but not
least: a typing test done by soran himself. Check it out:
