I am planning a couple of long trips and am thinking it might make sense to bring along an external keyboard. I am likely to grab one of my Novatouch TKL since they are compact and have a detachable keyboard. I don't want to end up banging the keyboard around, so I am seeing if anyone has a suggestion for how to pack the keyboard for the road. Is there a recommended sleeve or case of some sort that people tend to prefer?
I have looked around a bit and see options, but nothing stands out as the best choice. I leave soon, so I don't want to go entirely by trial and error. thanks for any help!
Case, bag, or sleeve recommendations for a TKL keyboard?

Im not advertising guns BUT:
look around your local shops / aliexpress / China for gun cases or pistol cases or tool cases - the seem to be a good option IF you get a stealthy case and not a "super power master gun killing 3000 extreme"
here is a example

Thanks - looks a bit overkill for my needs, but a nice option for super protection. I want to take the keyboard on a flight (perhaps in checked luggage), so I was hoping for something slim. I'll look at some online outlets to see if anything looks promising. Most appear to be neoprene or other similar types of sleeves, which don't look ideal

Yes, totally agree with Phenix. Suitcase it is the best option for a mechanical keyboard, otherwise, they will be damaged by whole thing. But make sure, that you put some bubble wrap...
