Your key is one of the best straight Keys made by human hands.

Met Phil Boyle a few years ago. Had a feel of one of his keys. It wasn't connected to anything. It was the nicest feeling hand key I have encountered.

Phil, you forget to tell people about the secret sauce of your key. That is the soft key landing. has two components, the added arm and the spring mounted contact. This gives your key such a sweet feel when using it . There in no jarring jolt when the key makes contact, but it is so silky smooth you do not even notice the ever so slight contact give as you press the key. The subtile nature is so tiny it is hard to define yet using a key without this refinement is tiresome to use. You have to use it to know the difference.

Anyone have this key or planning to get one?

It says they won't be available again until April. The problem is that the mail in the UK is all messed up due to some situations going on and I just don't trust the UK postal system after dealing with two different situations since Dec with orders. That key is just beautiful. Im so happy to see that video!

[@n5dr-gb4sk]

I've got one coming in April. Can't wait for it to arrive.

[@thequarantinecatholic]

@@n5dr-gb4sk That is awesome! I think the mail situation in the UK is starting to get better. See if you can get a tracker for shipment. Ive had two situations with orders from UK go wonky. Its a beautiful key, congrats!!!

[@W6JIM]

Almost there!
