Another banger board on loan from the homie Chan, thank you for the trust in letting me try out and record a sound test for your board as always man!

Firstly, just wanna go over the unique re-anodization job. This one is fresh off the press from Korea after being re-anodized by Selim Metal who does some insanely good ano work, probably some of the nicest ano I've felt in hand. Unlike traditional soft anodization that's used on most aluminum keyboards, this board has hard ano, and I'm not an ano expert by any means, but from my understanding, its much more durable and abrasion resistant than the usual soft ano. In hand, its still very smooth but almost slightly powdery feeling (?). Chan described it best as feeling like a clean chalkboard. Either way its quite different than other ano I've felt and different is cool.

On the board itself now, holy shit this thing is huge and I'm all for it (twss lol). The Sabre has massive desk presence and is probably the second biggest board I've featured on this channel with the Wyse terminal taking first place. Corsa sides on a fuckin giant Alice TKL??? Sign me tf up. I keep forgetting to flip over boards and showcase the back, but this thing also has a huge brass weight too which is always appreciated. Design wise, three thumbs up from me, love how this thing is constructed.

About the sound or lack there of, wow the MX2A silent reds are a pretty sleeper switch. Super fun to type on and aren't distractingly mushy in my opinion. Versus hyperglide/MX1A silent reds that are just full scratch throughout the entire keystroke, MX2A tooling really shines here with just some smooth scratch-free operation. There is a hint of spring ping that my mic picks up that is probably fixable by lubing the back of the leaf. Dare I say it but the sound of these reminds me of Topre. Honestly, trying out the MX2A silent reds here has made me consider picking some up later on just to use for fun.

As for typing feel, very comfortable top mount implementation. Not too stiff with just the right amount of give.

I think I've said everything that I've wanted to say, but yeah, sick ass board/build that uses a ton of off meta elements from the ano type, layout, and switch selection. Had a blast trying this one out!

Also finally threw Moon Dust on something else that isn't the Sessan lol.
