Never tried the SMK-85, I think they had strongman switches which were ALPS copies.
My favorite compact ALPS boards that I've tried were Siig minitouch with a switch swap and Ortek MCK-84 with Fukkas.

So they released tge same board with different types like the SiiG minitouch. I would be interested in iso version with these the fukkas then.

It's an ISO (real iso with the key next to left shift) winkeyless version.

So i just bought this keyboard, and one thing that bothers me is that the numlock key is used to change the keys(u,i,o into 4,5,6...) into the keypad, so every time i turn on the pc i have to turn off the num lock since for default the numlock is always on.

Seems my board bios gives you the option to turn it on or off at boot.
Also, if anyone has this board can they try to activate the scrolLock?
Looking at the color of the text(it shares the same key with delete), it would seem that to activate the scrolL, one would need to turn on the num lock first, but this doesn't seem to be working like that. only by pressing FN and the delete/scrolLock key that the led will turn on.Strange.
