Compact 60% Layout for Desk Efficiency

The FirstBlood AK680 is a wired mechanical gaming keyboard with a 60% form factor and 68 keys. It uses ABS injection-moulded keycaps with a frosted texture and ball-shaped profile. The compact design reduces desktop clutter for gamers and office workers who want essential functions in a smaller footprint.

Hot-Swappable Blue Switches for Custom Feel

The board features hot-swappable sockets that accept 3-pin mechanical switches, allowing changes without soldering. It ships with improved Blue switches that deliver a distinct click sound and tactile feedback. This suits users who prefer audible, clicky keystrokes for typing or gaming and want the freedom to swap switches later.

Wired USB-C Connection with Broad OS Support

Connectivity relies on a detachable Type-C USB cable for plug-and-play operation. The keyboard works with Windows, macOS and Linux without additional drivers. Fully anti-ghosting ensures every key press registers during intense input. Buyers needing wireless freedom or multi-device Bluetooth pairing should consider other models.

Questions about this item

Does the 60% layout require a standard ANSI case or plate for mounting?

The AK680 uses a compact 60% layout with 68 keys built into its own ABS case, so no separate case or plate is needed.

What is the correct way to hot-swap a 3-pin switch on this board?

Pull the keycap, use the included switch puller to remove the old 3-pin switch, align the new switch pins with the socket, and press straight down until seated.

How do I replace the EVA sound-dampening foam if it wears out?

Remove all keycaps and switches, unscrew the case halves, lift out the old EVA foam sheet, and press a same-size replacement into the bottom cavity before reassembly.
