So I know you're probably here for a mechanical keyboard, but hear me out. Topre keyboards utilize high quality rubber domes with conical springs that actuated midway down a keypress. Typing on Topre is a completely different feeling than typing on a standard rubber dome keyboard (I should know, I'm currently typing this on one). Topre keyboards are not for everyone, which certainly makes them a bit of a gamble. I recommend watching reviews of Topre products before ordering them so you know what you're getting into. The nice thing about Topre keyboards is that they hold their value. I recommend looking at something like r/mechmarket to see if you can find one for a reasonable price.
Price: $230
Manufacturer: HHKB
Model: HHKB Professional 2
Switches: Topre
Keycaps: Dye Sublimated PBT
Case Material: Plastic
Backlighting/RGB: None
Detachable Cable: Yes
Other Notes: This keyboard along with some others use Topre switches, and that is the general reason for the price tag. These switches are technically not mechanical, and are essentially very premium rubber dome switches. Don't let that scare you off though, the keyswitches are very pleasant to type on for most. They are not for everyone though. You can find more information regarding Topre and other Topre keyboards here: Link
If you do decide on topre, make sure to check out the FC660C as well. Also, there are other options in different layouts as well, like Realforce TKL/Full boards and the FC980C.
There are multiple models, some are silent, and there is even a bluetooth model.

This is one of the two portable options for Topre switches, along with the HHKB. Both would be great boards, this one is more of a standard layout however, keep that in mind. this is a 65% board. Also, there are other options in different layouts as well, like Realforce TKL/Full boards and the FC980C.
This board is extremely similar to the FC660M, however like stated already, it utilizes Topre switches instead of Cherry MX.

As a side note, there is a Hi-Pro version as well. The Hi-Pro has a different keycap profile that is taller. I suggest you look into both models before you make a decision on either. The Hi-Pro is $260, where the regular 104 is $250. There are also silent versions available that will end up costing more.
