Bakeneko60

Our version of the Bakeneko60 features a few key changes from kkatano's original design: We closed the bottom holes, added cutouts to the plate (to allow for assembly removal), and modified the case to be made using a casting process. We also designed our own PCBs (hotswap & solder) with multiple layout support.

Just add keycaps and switches for a complete build! Our Build Guide will help you build this kit from start to finish. For added comfort, pair your Bakeneko with a wooden wrist rest.

Budget Price, Endgame Feel

Originally designed by kkatano, the Bakeneko60 is an open-source keyboard featuring an o-ring gasket. An o-ring between the plate and PCB provides friction to hold the plate/PCB assembly in the one-piece case. Cutouts on the PCB allow the o-ring to rest on the mounting points built into the case. The result is a bouncy typing feel with a great sound profile

Customize Your Build

Several addons are available including different types of o-rings, wrist rests, and PCBs!

Quality Disclaimer

In order to allow us a quicker cadence of restocks and keep the price low, our Bakeneko60 uses a casting process. Please reference the quality guide below on what you can expect for surface finish quality with the Bakeneko60.

Punches Above Its Price

Read the listing closely because there will be imperfections in the case but nothing major or on the outside really. I've rebuilt this several times in different ways and it's been good I'm every different mod configuration. Totally recommend for those getting into the hobby.

Amazing compact keyboard with great accoustics

With the lavender switches, lubed and filmed, you get an amazing creamy thock. Incredible value for the price.

That's awesome you're enjoying the acoustics of this board. Lubed lavenders are definitely a great addition!
