    PRODUCT UPDATE – If you have visited this site and page recently, you know our lead times were extended due to parts availability issues.  We have recently received our greatly anticipated controller card parts for the USB keyboards.  It appears that now we are back to normal lead times.  With this said, we are now shipping from inventory and should be able to process your order in just a few days.  Supply of the New Model M components appears to be stable for the foreseeable future.  However, things can change quickly in the supply chain world.  If you are thinking of purchasing a New Model M, now would be an excellent time.

    The New Model M buckling spring keyboard has the same mechanism, feel and layout as the original IBM Model M keyboard, but with a slightly smaller footprint. With the much-loved buckling spring key design these keyboards have been prized by computer enthusiasts and robust typists because of the tactile and auditory feedback of each keystroke.


    Manufactured in Lexington, Kentucky, our buckling spring keyboard is a heavy, audible keyboard with a gorgeous finish and solid feel reminiscent of the classic IBM Model M keyboard.

     

    Buckling Springs

    Buckling springs originated in IBM’s mechanical keyboard as a fundamentally different kind of switch mechanism. Featuring a coil spring that sits between the keycap and a pivoting hammer that collapses when clicked, the spring provides a loud, tactile feedback.

     

    Model M-Inspired Keycaps

    The two-tone white and gray buckling spring keys are made of PBT polymer. The dye-sublimated legends compliment the authentic feel and classic design. The keys are also available in all gray or all white.
