From its heavily slanted design to the scooped, contoured tops of each cap, the set recreates the feel of vintage keyboards. - DOUBLESHOT LEGENDS: As opposed to a dye-sublimiation process, these doubleshot legends are permanently molded inside the keycap, thus becoming an integral part of it. This ensures reliable legends and continuity throughout the set. - BASE KIT: Covers fullsize, tenkeyless, winkeyless, 60%, 65%, and 75% Mechanical keyboards. - SPECS: Produced by Drop, ABS Hi-Profile MT3 keycaps, Doubleshot legends, MX compatible, and Fully sculpted based on IBM beamspring keycaps. - Compatible devices: Compatible with Cherry MX switches and clones ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Brand | DROP | | Series | Drop MT3 White-on-Black | | Hardware Platform | Laptop, PC, Linux | | Item Weight | 1.3 pounds | | Package Dimensions | 12.05 x 6.46 x 2.2 inches | | Color | White-on-Black | | Manufacturer | Drop | | ASIN | B08P57LDX4 | | Date First Available | November 25, 2020 | ## Product Details - **Compatible Devices:** Compatible with Cherry MX switches and clones, Other keyboards with compatible layout - **Material:** Plastic, Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) - **Color:** White-on-Black - **Brand:** DROP - **UPC:** 810027784162 810027784537 ## Images ![Drop MT3 White-on-Black (Base) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81sIjpNYrqL.jpg) ![Drop MT3 White-on-Black (Base) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/719xDbJD49L.jpg) ![Drop MT3 White-on-Black (Base) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/810sODR9ZBL.jpg) ![Drop MT3 White-on-Black (Base) - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81p+6btWmdL.jpg) ![Drop MT3 White-on-Black (Base) - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81StOeiTwiL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Surprisingly good. *by P***D on May 26, 2021* The price is shocking but I have been getting into building keyboards with my daughter and I really wanted something that would feel like an old-school terminal.Once I started using them I began to appreciate the attention to details. The concave keys just seem to fit my fingers and although there is no notch on the F and J keys, these two keys have a deeper notch to help find them without looking.I am pleased with the materials and the aesthetics are top-notch. With the right switches these keys are a dream. Honestly, I am a bit worried that I just won't be able to go back to 'normal' keycaps again. Overall, I am still not particularly happy with the price but these keys have really helped me see just how important the keycaps are in the overall experience of typing. At the end of the day I am spending soooo many hours a day at the keyboard that I am not unhappy with the purchase. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One of the best! *by J***1 on December 16, 2023* I will go on record and state this, If you are not a real deal typist and enjoy being so, do not buy these. They are of the highest quality and are well constructed. But they are for typists. Not gamers. There are better options for gaming than this. But if love typing, you cannot beat these caps! Once you get used to them, they have this way of sucking you into the sculpt and you will find yourself typing for hours, and enjoying every minute of it. They have the feeling of the one time you hit the golf club right in the middle. Every strike is bliss. Your fingers just mold into the sculpt. Great job Drop!! Wish you could make these in a little lower profile. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ High quality, high comfort, and high profile *by A***R on October 24, 2023* Let's cut to the chase here: If you're seriously considering purchasing a $100+ set of keycaps, then you already have a pretty good idea of what to expect. The legends are incredibly sharp, the caps themselves are made of very high-quality plastic, and it comes with enough caps to cover the vast majority of common keyboard layouts.The selling point for this set is going to be either the aesthetics, or the profile. Aesthetics are subjective so I won't really go over them here - what you see in the images is exactly what you're going to get, and you've already figured out if you like it. Instead, I'll talk about the MT3 profile a little bit since it's exclusive to Drop.If you're coming from the Cherry profile that's common on a lot of other high-end keycap sets (such as GMK), then the first thing you should know is that the keys are roughly twice as tall, give or take a couple of mm. This means that if you have a keyboard that's already on the taller side, or has a steeper typing angle, you may want to pick up a wristrest should you not already own one. It depends on your typing style; if you rest your wrists on your desk while you type then you may find MT3 a little uncomfortable without one. If you hover, then it's not likely to be an issue. The sculpting on the keycaps takes a little time to get used to as well, particularly if you've never used an SA-profile (or similarly sculpted) set. Personally I find it quite easy to type on, though because I'm not a touch typer, my error rate is definitely a bit higher than it is with other profiles when typing at anything over ~95 wpm. Lastly, I'll say that the deeper-dished F and J keys feel even better under my fingers than the rest of the alphas do, and I almost wish that they were the standard shape.I docked one star from my overall score because, on my compact 65% board, there is a small amount of interference between the up arrow and the enter key. It's nothing that a couple of minutes with some fine-grit sandpaper wouldn't fix (and it would be invisible when mounted on a board), however it's still disappointing considering the cost of the set. ## Frequently Bought Together - Drop MT3 White-on-Black Keycap Set, ABS Hi-Profile Keycaps, Doubleshot Legends, MX Style Covers Fullsize, Tenkeyless, Winkeyless, 60%, 65%, and 75% (Base Kit) - GUNMJO Pro Custom Coiled USB C Cable for Gaming Keyboard, Double-Sleeved Mechanical Keyboard Cable with Detachable Metal Aviator, 1.5M USB-C to USB-A, White Color --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/254018321-drop-mt3-white-on-black-base](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/254018321-drop-mt3-white-on-black-base) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-03*
