dp.s1.textTraining in the ancient Japanese martial art of Kendo centers on the shinai: a lightweight-yet-powerful sparring sword made of bamboo. Typing on the next installment in our Expression Series also centers on the Shinai: an enthusiast keyboard featuring tranquil bamboo aesthetic keycaps and exceptional build quality. Both begin with a special aluminum ENTR case, which features a green anodized finish and pad printed bamboo sprout artwork by OSHETART. Within the Shinai’s case, an ENTR PCBA is equipped with Holy Panda X Switches and Drop Phantom stabilizers for a next-level tactile feel to match its natural style. Completing the Shinai presentation, the Bamboo Keycap Set from our Skylight Series makes this board even more like its namesake sword, in both appearance and performance. Hand-assembled in the USA, the Shinai Keyboard is a cut above—and a slice of our own storied tradition.
