HHKB Classic

The original wired HHKB design, updated and carefully refined for a classic HHKB experience

  • Topre key switches

    Comprising a conical spring, rubber dome and an electrostatic capacitive sensor, Topre key switches eliminate key chatter, whilst providing supreme tactility, extra comfort, keystroke precision and of course, the famous Topre ‘Thock’ sound.

  • Minimalist, Tenkeyless, Near-Symmetrical Layout

    The compact size and near-symmetrical layout means your fingers never have to leave the home row making for greater speed, accuracy and reduced wrist and finger fatigue.

  • Premium PBT Keycaps and Spacebar

    Sculpted keycaps and spacebar made from durable, shine-resistant PBT with dye-sublimation printed legends for long-life and a crisp, professional finish.

  • Cylindrical Step Sculpted Design

    The cylindrical-step sculpted design provides greater ergonomics, with all keycap surfaces facing centrally, feels more natural and helps you keep your fingers on the home row.

  • Dip-Switch Customisation

    Dip-Switches enable you to change keyboard mode to support different Operating Systems and assign different functions to keys.

  • UNIX Arrangement

    We adopted the key arrangement following the Sun Type 3 key array. The [Control] key is to the left of [A] for greater usability and maximum productivity.

  • Designed and Made In Japan

    Commitment to quality, durability, and technological sophistication.
