I really like them. They have some scratch, but adds to the tactility. And they're not really "silent" but they're decently quiet, which suits me fine as I've got another keyboard with Kailh Deep Sea Whale silent tactiles and those are too silent for me. I like both auditory and tactile feedback. I've got these Mute Jade switches on another keyboard as well.

yeah, they’re funky, but i feel like the abs+silicone and pc plate could be a great vehicle for them. nice to see people showing mute jades some love

I think you’ve given me another silent to test out. I’ll be looking into these whales lol!

And here I thought I was original with this same idea :). I was going to get the Novelkeys classic but the typing angle is a bit low so I got the clear Swagkeys Transition lite to use with the same xray keycaps.

Wow that's exactly how I built my classic TKL. A few days I told someone there would probably be none like the one I had. We have great taste haha
