Note: These are currently finishing up in manufacturing and being packed and shipping to us in Australia, estimated within 2 months. Ever wanted a fullsize? Ever wanted the numpad on the left? Ever wanted a two tone board? Ever wanted something with thick plate? If you answered yes to any or none of the above questions
Why does everyone keep calling these “southpaw” keyboards?
A true “southpaw” setup will have the mouse on the left side of the keyboard, which would make the standard layout the “southpaw” one.
As proof of this, I would point to the posts by several people in the comments here who are right-handed, and have finally discovered that the standard layout is ass-backward for them, if they want to keep their hand on the mouse.
On the good side, it’s nice to see right-handed people starting to question “how we always done it”, and creating their own solutions for the problems they encounter.
That’s just how life has always been, for us left-handers.
I mean, I’m just calling it this because that’s what other people call these designs so it’s an easy reference point, this is me, I’m just stealing some of the tech you lefties have been hiding from us right handed people since the invention of the keyboard and mouse

I realize that.
I just feel somewhat compelled, as an actual “southpaw”, to point out the fallacies associated with the name.
I wouldn’t want any of my fellow southpaws to buy into the name, without taking the time to examine the functionality of the product being offered.
