Military grade metal - Razer keyboards

Hey gang,

Been looking to buy a new Razer keyboard, as my Blackwidow Razer Blackwidow X Chroma TE went out of warranty on the 18 of December last year (bummer) and also been having some problems with Synapse 2.0, being forced to switch on Synapse 3.0 Beta, witch does not support my current keyboard. Also adding insult to injury my A key has a mind of it's own it seems.. registering the keystroke when it wishes, mostly failing.. [funny how it stopped working well just almost a month after getting out of warranty .. but heh, what can you do ^^]

Now for the topic at hand, as the title suggests.. i've been doing some research on the newly released keyboards from Razer.. and to my surprise i found out they DO NOT make them out of military grade metal anymore? As my X Chroma TE is/was? This was that one feature that absolutely made fall in love with this product.. and of course i want nothing less now...

My question for you guys and Razer.. can someone provide a list of newer keyboards that ARE made out this kinda metal? Or was it just a "thing" from the past with some razer keyboards? I mean man.. the feel of this keyboard never gets old for me... Cold hard steel and razer green switches ... What a pair made in heaven :)

Sorry for the long post also, but i was trying to express my feelings on this matter.. also the fact that looking on the Razer website is a bit confusing for me.. not showing the full specs and mats used on these newer keyboards.

Thank you kindly !

Pretty sure the Blackwidow X lineup are the only keyboards Razer make that are just metal, the rest of them are either plastic or have a plastic cover over the metal.

Blackwidow Elite, has also military grade metal top construction beside BWX lines. Meanwhile Huntsman has aluminum matte top plate, but it feels sturdy enough like BWX when I tried it at electronics store. I’ve BWX Te for 2 years this month, yes this Keyboard doesn’t break at all, I dropped it maybe 2 or 3 times due my tiny desk.

First keybord if remember correctly was Blackwidow X chroma then blackwidow v2 was plastic and Blackwidow Elite is also military grade.
Thank you all for the responses. Blackwidow Elite it is then! - It was also my top pick.. tho i wasn't sure about the materials used.
