Tenkeyless backlit mechanical keyboard

I was about to buy a tenkeyless keyboard while saving money for the Corsair RGB but decided that I'd be using the tenkeyless much more anyways so I'll just increase my budget for a TKL. Currently looking at a 130-150 range.

What I need:

  • tenkeyless layout (80%)
  • mechanical tactile switches
  • very solid construction (will carry it around with me)

What I want:

  • cherry mx blue
  • white backlight

I was hoping I could get a Ducky Shine 3 TKL but they're all out in mechanicalkeyboards.com and ncix. NCIX's website says they're "Usually available in 2-5 days" but was wondering if anyone's been checking in on this recently to know if I should expect them to restock any time soon?

 

Any other suggestions are welcome.

Only place i've seen ducky's readily available is ncix, just keep checking every day they're usually pretty good at restocking products.

Ducky shine 3 DK9087

 

That's the very model I want but can't seem to find, at least not in blue switches and white backlight.

That's great to hear, I've left my email for notification on restocks. Thanks!

Yeah, that's what got me wanting a Ducky in the first place :P

I had no way of getting one where I am and their announcement this week made me want to try and wait for one.

I'm pretty sure Dylan meant quickfire tk but that not tkl just merged arrow keys with number pad. The cm storm quickfire rapid however is a tkl solid build keyboard but there no backlight run u about 70$-80$ Since you want it portable it also comes with detachable cable. There is a blue switch version.
