KAT BOW Keycap Set Dye-Sub PBT

I love the feel of KAT profile keys and the smooth texture of these keycaps is awesome. The kit is generally pretty expansive and one of the few that includes macOS legends, but unfortunately it's missing a few key pieces to make certain layouts viable. There is a single esc key for Row 5, but two separate row 4 ~ caps, so I wasn't able to have an esc legend on a 65% build. Also, there is no 1u Command keycap, so I could not fit one to the right of my spacebar for the KBDF67 r2 layout. The options for the far right column of navigation keys is also slightly limited. All in all, it's a very nice quality set of keycaps for the price, and I'd be 100% satisfied if there was only a row 4 escape key.

This was my first experience with KAT and I am definitely on board with this profile as it's in the middle ground between Cherry and SA. The keycaps are very sturdy and thick which creates a great sound profile that is much deeper than Cherry. I find that the finish is a little slippery but is not too bad. Only the 7U spacebar had a very very slight warp that is not that noticeable and can be easily straightened out. The legends are very crisp, bold, and have good uniformity on each cap. This kit is very extensive with many compatible options such as Alice/ergo with an extra B and spacebars, although it is missing a 2.25U spacebar which would've been perfect.

These are actually my first set of keycaps from KAT after dozens of GMK. I am presently surprised by the quality. The keycaps are really thick (visually even thicker than the GMKs) and sound great. They are also more comfortable to touch. I think the quality is better than even SA and MT3. You won’t regret getting it. Make sure you check out color comparison between this set and other BOW set. This set is definitely much creamier / more beige than most other BOW set that I have , such as the GMK Hennessy. The color is not bad. Just make sure you know it is not gonna be e-white.

Good quality caps, thick, thoccy, super clear legends, fits majority of layouts. What more can you ask for?

Nice feel and size way better than the standard drop alt key caps.
