Kailh Box Heavy Dark Yellow
normal
This switch is clacky, the sound level is along the lines of most average budget linears (i.e. Gateron Yellows) but without as much of the scratch.
slight
<p>Stock spring comes with slight factory lube at the bottom of the spring and a slight bit on the legs. However, there&#8217;s still a bit of spring ping and a slight bit of scratchiness. Both of these qualities can be solved with Krytox 205g0 and/or GPL 105. Otherwise, it&#8217;s a fairly smooth stock switch.</p>

Stainless steel, silver in color.
Factory springs are decent for a linear switch. If spring swapping it should be noted this is a Kailh Box spring.

<p>Box Yellows are very smooth out of the box with little ping. Due to their linearity, you can&#8217;t easily tell when they&#8217;ve actuated unless you bottom out, which combined with their spring weight, can get fatiguing over time. They can have a nice muted &#8216;pop&#8217; ey sound. They feel heavier than Clears unless you train yourself not to bottom out.</p>
