Product Description

The Shurikey Gear Hanzo is a 65% mechanical keyboard suited for users who want a compact layout with essential keys retained, such as arrow keys and Delete. It fits hobbyists or professionals who appreciate retro industrial design and value both wired and Bluetooth wireless connectivity. Its dual multimedia knobs and detachable decorative parts appeal to users who enjoy customization and functional aesthetics.

Key Features

65% layout keeps the keyboard compact while retaining arrow keys and Delete for efficient navigation.
Two multimedia knobs allow quick adjustment of system volume and keyboard backlight without software.
Dual-mode connectivity supports wired and Bluetooth 5.0, with the ability to pair up to three devices and switch between them quickly.
Long battery life with a 4400mAh battery, supporting over 30 days of typical daily use without backlight.
Detachable decorative and functional parts, including cover, rivets, knobs, and footrests, enable easy customization and maintenance.

Build Quality and Design

The Hanzo features a retro industrial aesthetic inspired by past technology, using RHCM shell technology for a high-quality plastic texture. Keycaps are made from thick 1.5mm ABS two-color molded plastic, providing durability and a solid typing feel. The keyboard includes innovative footrests that serve as decorative elements when not in use and offer two adjustable typing angles (3° and 7°) when flipped.

Typing Experience

Equipped with Varmilo EC V2 electrostatic capacitive switches, the keyboard delivers a smooth keystroke with improved stability, reduced friction, and longer lifespan compared to traditional mechanical switches. The thick ABS keycaps contribute to a firm and consistent input feel. The overall typing sound and feel are balanced for users who prefer a tactile yet quiet experience.

Connectivity

The Hanzo supports both wired and Bluetooth 5.0 connections. Bluetooth mode can connect to three devices simultaneously, allowing users to switch between devices without reconnecting. Wired mode is available for stable, low-latency use. This flexibility suits users who work across multiple devices or prefer wireless setups.

Trade-offs

The 65% layout omits some function keys, which may require using shortcuts for less common commands.
ABS keycaps, while thick and durable, may develop shine over time compared to PBT keycaps.
Unknown firmware or keymapping customization options limit insight into advanced remapping capabilities.
