The Willow 64 is a split (or monoblock) by Hanachi, with a pretty original stagger.

The Willow64 is a split-type self-made keyboard featuring a key arrangement that gently fits natural finger movements – Hanachi.

More info on the idea and layout in this blog post (in Japanese) by the author.

While originally a true split, as you can see in the photo above, it can be easily turned into a unibody with a plate.

Specs

  • 64 keys, Willow layout
  • MX, hotswap
  • Pro Micro footprint
