We finally received the mass-producible sample of Damascus aluminum last month.
It survived every extreme test, but the final cost explained exactly why this material is so rare. It costs 15 times more than standard aluminum.
We originally only planned to make a few artisans with it. But after weighing our options, we decided to bite the bullet and put this 15x cost directly into the chassis of the Dry Studio Battleye R2.
The Damascus aluminum Battleye R2 arrives in late June.
This also got us wondering, are there any excellent examples of Damascus aluminum being used on keyboards out there🤔
