Who knows about this switch?

This key switch is in the keyboard named Wal1 from Oak Switch Systems.
It seems similar to the buckling spring switch but the feel is definitely linear.
Do you know which switch it is? I can't find any information.

These are Oak Full Travel Membrane switches, meaning that, like the Model M, they use a membrane sheet underneath the keys, instead of a PCB. I've always been interested in trying these out- how are they, I assume not too great? The wiki has a little write-up on them: wiki/Oak_Full-Travel_Membrane
