minus-squaretechwizrdlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·1 year agoThis exists! The ASUS ROG Claymore II is an 80% “optical mechanical” with a detachable numpad. Mountain also makes several TKLs and an 60% (the Everest 60) with a detachable numpad. You could also make one using the KBDcraft Kit Adam and Kit Addams. However, I agree with the others. I think you get the best build quality using a standalone mechanical numpad. If I was going to get a split design, I’d probably get an Ergodox or Keychron Q11 QMK or something similar.
