Found on the original Model M mechanical keyboards, buckling spring switches are loud, tactile, and require a high amount of force.

The sound and the feel will take you back to the 80's. There's a reason why these legendary switches are so sought after!

These are definitely not for your gaming sessions, but are probably the best switches you can find for typing. Best tactile feedback, classic sound, and just enough force for any typist. I recommend anyone who types a lot to go buy a Model M or any keyboard with these switches.
