if you are facing the wall and the thicker blade is on the left, does the cord hand straight down, down to the right or down to the left?

Mine, bought two weeks ago, hangs down to the left as you face the wall. I need one that hangs to the right, however (as shown in the drawing on the package...grrrr!), so I am ticked off.

Both the photo on the product package and the diagram at the top right of the package show it angled to the right (if viewed while facing the wall).The one I received in mid-November is the opposite (angled to the left when looking at the wall) of what is shown on the product package.And the style of the plug itself also doesn't exactly match the photo shown on the package. Woods may have switched manufacturers but not updated their packaging.

Yes it rotates in both directions which really helps when cutting the sides. I've had this tool for 2 growing seasons and it has held up well. I've been able to cut 200' of hedges in 2-4 hours depending on how long it has been since the last cut.

My wife is left handed too! But we can't find the way to turn the blades. We tried to remove the circle button on the top, but we can not do it!

It is on the left. I never thought about what a problem that might be for left handed folks. But for us right-hand-ers this is a great iron. It is very substantial, well made, doesn't leak It is heavy - in a good way- the sole plate makes great contact, no need to press down on the iron for a good sharp crease.

The blade is in a shape like this \/ , not like this l/ If that is what you are asking, if you are asking if it is a double edge, no, the blade just runs up one side. The base is flat on both sides and in its same shape (minus the cord wrap).

I don't pay attention to which side the blade faces but it is a valid question. If you wear the knife on your right side the sheath sits with upper side of blade facing forward if worn on left the opposite is true and business side of blade is facing forward. To me it makes no difference just liked this particular style knife."It's Big" and with a very little amount of work the blade is razor sharp, it does come sharp enough for most, although my tastes are just a bit higher to satisfy; so using on of my kitchen set Henckels steel to align the blade brought out the razors edge we all like to have. Hope this answered you question. I don't pay attention to which side the blade faces but it is a valid question.

Hi Darlene: The directions are on the back of the package. If you are right handed, hold the sharpener in your left hand with your thumb in the front and your index finger in the back. You will see that there are two circular indentations on each side. Hold the sharpener with the open notch pointing upward. Hold your scissors in your right hand, slip the lower blade into the lower slot, and rest the upper blade in the open notch. Now squeeze the handles together as if you would to cut something and pull toward your scissors towards you at the same time. Insert, squeeze and pull. Repeat that several times. I am left handed and can sharpen my left-handed scissors holding the sharpener in my right hand and the scissors in my left hand and this works for right or left handed scissors. The only time it could get complicated is if you have an older pair of left handed scissors with right-handed blades. In this case you would have to hold the scissors in your right hand and the sharpener in the left hand. And yes, I still have my first pair of left handed Fiskars dressmaking shears from the early 60's, that have right handed blades! After using this sharpener on my oldest pair of Fiskars, it is sharper than my three newer Fiskar dressmaking shears. Okay, so let's say you don't like the squeezing action. There is another way to sharpen the blades. Holding the scissors, open the blades and slip one blade into the lower slot and slide the sharpener back and forward along the blade several times. Flip the scissors over and repeat with the other blade. In this case you are not moving the scissors, but simply the sharpener, sliding it to and fro. You will see that the scissor blades are cut at an angle and the ceramic pin is inserted at an angle. So align the angle of your blade with the angle of the ceramic pin. I hope this helps. E-me back and let me know how you do. - Angela

The saw is left bladed. In your right handed the blade is to the left/inside. If a rightie, you can see the guide markings better (and cut a finger off your left hand easier) than a right bladed saw. Flip side is, usually you can not support your work piece with left hand so you may need to clamp/support what you are cutting. Depends. Being a rightie I prefer a left bladed saw, but it is a matter of taste. If you are a leftie the reverse may hold true.

I'm right-handed so I hold the nozzle of the dryer in my left hand and grab the handle and fold it in towards the dryer. You have to use a little pressure to fold it. I was worried at first that I would break it but I've had mine for two years and it's fine. I also bought two as Christmas gifts and they are working fine also. Don't be afraid to use a little force. Having said that, I hope it doesn't break. :) I really don't think it will. I see that one answer says it has a button, it snaps back up. I think that one may be referring to the cord. Hope this helps.

The blade is reversible (I don't understand how you would even determine RH or LH?)so you can use it on the other side once it starts getting dull. So it doesn't matter which side the nut goes on. Don't forget about the wash under the nut and the washer on the other side of the blade.

I guess the question is "the back OR the side"? It comes out of the side (right-lower side of the handle).

Two blades are supposed to run clockwise. Two are supposed to run anti-clockwise (counterclockwise). If they are doing this, it is correct.

It only goes into the sheath one direction. There is no grip that would make it L or R handed. It's ambidextrous. Great knife!

The cord for the receiver is on the left side as your facing it. I am right handed and this has not been a problem. It is not awkward using it.

You use the little mechanism on the bottom of the knife.it will go to the left. its a little blackpiece of steel with ridges on it. push it to the left of the knife.

For a simple response, the straight side is the cutting side. But in actuality, both side are wavy as the blade dips up and down because it is a mulching blade.

This holster can go either way, the holster is molded right down the middle so its dependent on which side you thread the belt thru. I'm right handed too, works great, good grip but easy release
