This is not a joke, but a serious price.
When you hear of a keyboard for use with a computer, you probably imagine that you can buy one for roughly 5,000 yen.
(Except for the swamp dwellers, since the keyboard swamp community probably has a buggy sense of finances.)
Ryan Norbauer is an industrial designer and fabricator who lives in Silicon Valley, USA.
His new keyboard brand new release is a whopping $3,500.00.
Considering that the Macbook Pro sells for $2,499.00 in the U.S., you can see that it is by far the most expensive keyboard.
This was a story that caught my attention, so I will introduce it in a few words.

What is probably the world’s most expensive keyboard Norbauer “Titanium Editions
At first glance, the Norboyer Titanium Editions looks like a plain mechanical keyboard.
Why is it so expensive?
I read the description and found the reason there.
Reasons for high price
- Made of “titanium alloy,” which is inherently expensive in terms of weight and volume
- Low volume production makes it difficult to lower the unit price per unit.
- Difficult to machine and expensive to process
In general, CNC-machined aluminum is often used as the body material for high-end keyboards.
These keyboards are also too expensive to be sold at a “popular” price point, and it is customary in this area to have group buyers and produce only as many keyboards as there are buyers.
The price of aluminum-body keyboards generally ranges from 20,000 yen to 50,000 yen.
The use of “ultra-premium” titanium for its body and small-lot production probably contributed to its price.
Among them, the Norbaforce Mark IV is an 80% layout keyboard, which, at 130 yen to the dollar, costs roughly 455,000 yen.
Incidentally, the Heavy Grail Pro 3, a 60% keyboard with HHKB layout, costs $2,650.00 (about $344,500.00) and would be easier to purchase. (white eyes)
Oh, I believe this is the price for the body only, the PCB base and keycaps must be from REALFORCE or HHKB.

I would love to drag you into the keyboard swamp.
It was a bit of a catchy topic, so we took it up.
Personally, HHKB is one of my favorite keyboards, and I would love to have this Titanium Edition body…but I don’t have the courage to take the step.
The world of keyboards is full of people who would buy one at this price.
We believe that a keyboard with good-quality keystrokes and typing sounds has the potential not only to improve creativity but also to contribute to improved typing speed, resulting in increased work efficiency.
Generally speaking, mechanical keyboards give the impression of being for gamers, but this is an excellent product for business people to use.
If investing in a keyboard will make you more efficient at your job, then you should invest more and more.
And if you use the time you have left over from streamlining to customize your keyboard, work is no longer work, and you can immerse yourself in an endless typing world. (Delirium)
