Machined from a single block of aluminum and built to intimidate every keyboard, the Serene Industries Cleaver Keyboard isn’t just another slab of keys—it’s a weaponized typing experience. With a design ethos rooted in minimalism and mechanical mastery, the Cleaver is a lean, mean hall effect machine that trims all the fat and leaves only what matters: a brutalist form, uncompromising materials, and tactile precision. Measuring just 17.5mm thick and 365mm across, this keyboard is surprisingly slim given its armor-plated appearance, and it still manages to carry that signature Serene Industries weight and presence.

The Cleaver’s standout feature is its Hall Effect switch system—magnetically driven hot-swappable keys designed for unparalleled longevity and consistency. Wrapped in a silicone core and fused directly to the aluminum chassis, it’s built like a bunker but resembles a dream. RGB backlighting, a rugged USB-C port, and built-in onboard controls round out the package, as well as customizable keycaps and a bit of flair for the gamers among us—think +50 to style and +15 to melee.

This is not your dad’s mechanical keyboard. It’s a $850 statement piece with specs to match and is currently available for pre-order. Manufacturing begins two weeks after the drop, so if you want to join the cult of Cleaver, now’s the time to strike.
