Nice switches

The switches were very smooth, thocky, and quieter than what I had. Overall a very nice switch for my board. ThockKing was able to get me the switches quick and in good condition as advertised.

My first experience with linear switches!

I bought my second mechanical keyboard ever, a Rainy 75, and wanted to go all out with the mods. I’ve heard that when it comes to linear switches, the Gateron Oil Kings reign supreme. And thus, I decided to splurge a bit. They arrived in just three days all the way from the opposite side of the country! Not only that, they sound and feel absolutely divine. Couldn’t be happier. I absolutely recommend this seller, and will be purchasing from Thock King again!

Premium

A joy to use. I tried many switches but these really make me feel like I'm using a premium product when typing. If you don't have specific goals, this is a very good all round switch for everything

Smoothest Linear Switches ever created

Literally the smoothest switches I have ever tried, and I've tried a good amount of switches. Lubing and filming them makes these perfect, but they are perfectly usable stock.

Really nice

These are really nice and smooth. They didn’t need any additional lube. Plug and play.
