    Just as described I got what I wanted,
    I am right handed but I have to use the number pad very often and I was alway having to get my hands of the mouse ,now problem solve, I can move my mouse and type numbers at the same time :D.

    I like this keyboard a lot. A key-press is not too heavy, not too light and the switches have a satisfying ring to them. In summary, a joy to work with.

    Very good product, solid keyboard with nice kahil switches. Bought this for my office as I kept bashing my mouse on the numpad of my last 100% keyboard and this solved my issue. Sound is quite nice too, added tape mod and some light foam and it sounds wonderful. The one (very minor) issue is that the switch plate is metal which can lead to it pinging a little.

    This keyboard was everything that I had hoped and wished. It is perfect for lefties; a nice solid heavy machine that sits solidly on the desk.

    It is a pleasure to once again have a real English keyboard with easy direct access to both £ and € as well. As a holdout from the incomparable Windows 7 it was very easy to reconfigure for this superb keboard.

    Could I wish for anything more? Without a doubt it woulbe wonderful if the en symbol was also available, perhaps on number 3, paired with the £ and accessed by the AltGr key.

    Thank you again Keyboard Company!

    I’m left-handed but mouse with my right hand. I had a left-handed beige-era keyboard years ago (from The Keyboard Company) and it was ideal for swiftly entering numbers and dates on the numberpad, while positioning the cursor with the mouse. I’ve changed jobs again and decided to treat myself to another left-handed keyboard. This one has a similar but not quite the same feel as my Filco Majestouch (which is getting old), but much better than the ‘standard issue’ keyboard I use at work. It seems to work fine with Microsoft Windows 10 and Linux Mint 21, both connected directly to the computers and through a KVM switch. I have discovered that this keyboard doesn’t work with a USB-PS2 connector, unlike the Filco – which may only be a problem if you accidentally disable USB support in your BIOS…

    I bought this keyboard specifically for roping in Worms Armageddon as I usually have the arrow keys remapped to WASD and use the Spacebar for tapping.

    Of course my muscle memory is used to normal layouts so I feel like Bambi trying to walk though this is an absolute delight to rope on! It’s extremely responsive ensuring I can go full speed with ease.

    The benefit of roping with right hand on spacebar with a left handed keyboard is that it makes it much easier to reach the F keys when using weapons with the right hand. As opposed to having to reach one hand over the other when using WASD on a normal keyboard with the left hand.

    Not only does it excel for roping, it also has excellent notch control making sure you can move the aiming cursor notch by notch with ease making your mechanical skills shine.

    I’m giving it a 5 star rating based on this alone, it’s also good for typing with.

    Excellent keyboard for those who find themselves frequently using the number pad and mouse. Makes data entry much easier!

    This keyboard feels like an old school mechanical keyboard. It’s not like a gaming keyboard. The actuation is nearer to the top of the key. For fast typing this can be helpful.
    I wish the left shift key wasn’t so short but I’m sure I’ll get used to it.

    3 days shipping from order being placed. UK to Canada. Impressive.

    I’m happy to find this keyboard. It’s not cheap, but very high quality.

    Really pleased I found this. Im left handed but use a mouse in my right hand, so this centers better when using and the keys are better spaced (closer) for my freakily short pinkies as my Dell keyboard was causing hyper extending which hurt – all pain now gone. No light up novelty but really glad I bought and this seller offers fantastic friendly and fast service

    Im right handed got this for CADCAM. Nice having the keyboard centered between dual monitors and not having to move mouse hand to input values. Only found a few keyboards with this layout having the number and directional pad on the left side. Super happy with this keyboard. It’s solid, simple and the keys are crisp.

    Great keyboard, I am right handed and use this simply because it allows the keys to be more central on the desk with much more room for my mouse which I use with my right hand.

    Excellent keyboard. While typing it’s stable though on front and the sides there’s a bit of indentation which really helps to move it if needed. Keys are Kalih Brown, tactile, 45cN, while for sure you can feel the tactile feedback it’s really easy to type, keys are light and high quality.
    Space between arrow keys, numpad and rest of the keyboard is minimal which is awesome as you don’t need to move hand by much.
    There’s a Function Key with standard multimedia features though it would be nice if there would be an option to replace it with standard Win key.
    Awesome keyboard sharing the first place with best like DSI and Bloody.

    I’m a forced left hander as I lost the entire use of my right dominant hand, this is my 2nd left hand keyboard and is way ahead of my older one, I love the response from the keys and very low noise from the keys make it a dream to use.
    Fast delivery, very well packaged & a follow up email from the company with a name & contact number should I have any issues was nice, I would highly recommend this left handed keyboard.

    I bought this as a right hander to bring my mouse hand into a more natural position. This is a perfect full size right handed board, my shoulder is a lot more relaxed. Numpad and navigation keys on the left also allow me to keep my hand on the mouse when working on spreadsheets.

    This is my 1st mechanical board so I only have membrane to compare it to. The cherry brown clones clack deliciously but bottom out easily. I cant tell if the switches are pcb or plate mounted, there is a tiny bit of wobble of the actual switch as well as the stem. I put some silicone rings under the stems but the caps are tall enough that it requires 2 to reach the switch. Caps look like oem profile, abs with the legends printed on top. I’ll be replacing them as soon as I can find a decent ISO set.

    tl:dr – Brilliant. Should have bought one sooner. Loses one star as it could have had original cherry switches and better keycaps.

    This keyboard feels marvellous to type on, Im really impressed. I am left handed and love having the navigation keys to the left – but even my right handed partner thinks the keyboard is a joy to type on.
    Prompt delivery and the item was well packaged too – Im one satisfied customer!

    I’ve got two of these now for office and home. They are high quality and relatively quiet for a mechanical keyboard. I’m right handed but find this layout much more comfortable with the mouse being so close to the main keys.
