What Keyboard does Linus use on a daily basis?

What Keyboard does linus use on a daily basis? I saw him mention it in this vid:

 

 

but I don't know how to spell it. I'm looking for a good backlit mechanical keyboard with programmable buttons because my old mac keyboard really just annoys me, and because linus mentions his keyboard, I wanted to see if I like his. (btw I'm using my mac keyboard on my windows gaming pc)

I think the G710+? Correct me if I'm wrong.

The keyboard he mentions in the video is called "Zibal 60"

He does use the G710+, he said that he tried to switch to the Corsair RGB but found it to frustrating

I think it was the Logitech G710+, what I know for certain is he's said brown switches are his favorites.

For the longest time his daily driver and most consistently used was a Zibal 60 from Mionix

Is there any reason the Zibal 60 is so expensive compared to a Ducky Shine or other keyboards?

I thought he said blues was his preference?

Oh right okay. I just remember him doing a video on a Razer mouse that used mechanical keys and he said he was happy cause there was a blue option which is his preference or something.
