4 Attractions of KeyTok Ivory Symphony
I found KeyTok Ivory Symphony attractive for the following four reasons.
- High quality and very inexpensive
- Easy-to-use ivory-based BoW color
- Adopts KDA profile for finger familiarity
- Thick sidewalls for a smooth keystroke feel
High quality and very inexpensive
The best thing about KeyTok Ivory Symphony is that it is both high quality and inexpensive.
A keycap made of single-shot PBT material with this thick wall thickness would normally cost $60.00 or more, but the fact that it can be purchased for about half that price is very attractive.
The end processing of each keycap is clean and burr-free.
The printing on the keycaps is also clear without blurring.
KawamuraDye-sublimation printing prints as if soaked into the keycap, so the printing rarely disappears with use.
Easy-to-use ivory-based BoW color
Also, this basic coloring is probably one of the most attractive features.
The so-called “BoW” (Black on White) color, with black letters on a white background, looks great on any frame keyboard.
The fact that it is not pure “white” but “ivory” also gives a soft impression.
Adopts KDA profile for finger familiarity
The Ivory Symphony keycap set uses KeyTok’s proprietary profile called KDA.
Although it has a Cherry-like height, the keys have a spherical design with a semi-arched depression in the center of the keys and rounded corners that are very comfortable for the fingers.
KawamuraThis unique profile is very complete…!
Thick sidewalls and a thumping sound are appealing.
Normally, the “thicker the sidewall thickness, the more bass is emphasized” when it comes to the feel of the PBT material.
It is the so-called “thocky” keystroke sound.
As you can see in the photo, the keycaps are very thick, giving the keys a nice, soft, and smooth feel.

Review KeyTok Ivory Symphony in photos
Here’s a look at KeyTok Ivory Symphony in pictures.
Let’s start with the exterior.
It arrived sealed in a very solid case.
The outside does not have this crush and does not look like a product that has arrived from overseas by any means.
The box opens to reveal a large number of key caps spanning four layers.
As expected, 140 keys are impressive.
Although the specifications call for 5-sided sublimation printing, it appears from the outside that only one key top is printed.
KawamuraPerhaps the ivory color itself is printed.
No legends blurring, etc. was observed when the image was enlarged.
Zoom in on one of the key caps.
Stem molding accuracy is good, and there are no repair burrs that can form during keycap molding.
Thick-walled PBT material is used, and a thocky typing sound can be expected.
In addition, this keycap set uses a proprietary profile called KDA.
Thus, the height of the keys is kept at the same level as Cherry, and they are depressed in a semi-arc toward the center, so they are very comfortable for the fingers when typing.
In addition, the corners that come into contact with the fingers are rounded, so they are gentle to the fingers.
With 140 keys and a very large number of keys, we were able to accommodate irregular layouts such as 40% keyboards without any problems.
summary
This is my review of KeyTok Ivory Symphony.
BoW keycaps on any color keyboard are very useful.
Nevertheless, there is a wide range in terms of quality, and too much fluorescent-colored “white” can be too assertive and contrast too clearly with the keyboard frame.
In this regard, cream keycaps would match any keyboard because of their soft color.
Please consider purchasing KeyTok’s inexpensive, high-quality keycaps.
