A handle assembly and a stapler including the same are provided. The handle assembly includes a first handle and a second handle having an un-linked state and a linked state. When the first handle and the second handle are in the un-linked state, and the first handle is rotated in a first direction, the second handle is not rotated, thereby to fire the stapler. When the first handle is in the linked state, and the first handle is rotated in the first direction, the second handle is actuated to rotate in the first direction to fire the stapler. During operation, no matter the stapler is ready to be fired or not, the first handle can be pressed to move by the doctor.
