Bencher BY-1 Paddle, chrome, Base plate black

A good "paddle" Morse key has to be heavy, and that is the Bencher BY-1!  The heavy weight is necessary so that you don't have to hold the key with your other hand while transmitting. The BY-1 weighs almost 1 kg.

The most important thing, of course, is the precise and reliable function of the squeeze mechanism on this key, even at high speeds. The carefully mounted paddles are smooth-running, the lateral resistance is adjustable and the return force is permanently provided by a spring mechanism. This ensures years of trouble-free operation.

And then the key may also look noble. The Bencher BY-1 easily achieves this, whether in bright chrome, black powder-coated or with the black shiny chromated base plate. The BY-1 looks brilliant on any station table.
