I'm left handed. It looks kind of like only a right-handed person can actually see the blade while cutting. True? Has any lefthander used this?

I am a leftie, and have had no problem using this saw. There is a guide in front, and when viewed from above, you can see the notch that you can line up with your pencil line. Hope this is helpful.

I am right handed however because of some projects I have cut left handed with no problem. There is a v-cut guide at the front which you can use to stay on line.

I wouldn't even bother using this product. I would rather invest in a corded or cordless circular saw. I used it once and the plastic was melting and smelled.

I am a left handed person to. It is a little difficult especially if you are at the edge of something. This is not a piece for doing any heavy work at all it heats up very quickly. It may be good for balsa wood, but did not do the job for plywood. The Ryobi tool worked great. I bought it after I had purchased and sent back the Dremel.

a right handed means the blade is on the right a left handed means the blade is on the left i am right handed and i like the blade on the left you can see the line bettermost places is telling you what side the cuting blade is on, worked in wood for 57 years ,and some people will tell you different

The blade edge is beveled on both sides and the handle shape is identical on both sides as well. It should work well for a left-hander.

With the Dewalt circular saw, I will say that being left-handed myself, I have grown accustomed to using right-handed saws. The only problem that I have with them is that the exhaust from them tends to blow right in my face. As long as I wear eye protection, it's not too much of an issue. In fact, using a left handed saw now seems odd to me. Also, I have not seen a saw of this quality in a left-handed version, without paying quite a bit of money. It's been my experience in over 40+ years of woodworking, that the best thing to do is to get used to working with the right handed saws.

I suppose it is for a right-hander, however, both sides of the blade are knife sharp! A leftie could use it with the curved side inward and use the smooth side of the blade downward instead of the scalloped side. It is an indispensable garden tool either way!

When I googled Ulu and looked at the various blades, I don't see why you can't use this product. Needless to say it may be a little awkward but I think you will have success. I am left-handed so most things feel awkward to me.

Comfortwise it feels fine in my left hand. I don't know if the slant of the cutting edge would work the same or not. Maybe ask Felco?

I feel that one designed for a specific hand is just a little more comfortable and more pleasant to use. Lefties have a difficult time with some rotary cutters. I have read some of the reviews and lefties are lovin' this left handed Gingher Rotary Cutter.That being said, you can either cut fabric from the left or right side. Simply put...decide how you will procede to cut fabric. If can't decide buy one of each. :-)

It is designed like a spatula, so works that way for either. But the straight/cutting edge seems would be best for right handed, not sure if it would be awkward for leftys. it is exactly as the picture depicts. Also, it is a very heavy wt commercial grade feeling tool. I love mine and use it quite often for many things. I was very surprised at the excellent quality. Hope this helps.

A left-handed person can use it because with your left hand you still turn it clockwise, not counter clockwise. Actually never had anyone ask about left-hand use and this benriner has been around a long, long time and we have sold it for years and I am sure there have been left-handed users. Thank you.

Being right handed I can't say for sure but both handles are the same I just grabbed mine with both hands and it feels the same and there are after market grip handles available for this knife. In my opinion it should fit a lefty just as well

While the finger holds are the same held either way, I do not think that you would find it satisfactory. The entire purpose of these is the large blade which protects you from cutting too much. Reversed you lose that protection because the larger blade would end up on the bottom. So I would not get these for a leftie. I found their contact info and included it below. Hope you can locate left-handed ones because they are just the ticket for cutting out tricky appliques and other close trimming work. The larger blade really does protect well.

I'm a rightie, but I experimented on a piece of paper --- the scissors appeared to cut the paper easily with either hand. I suggest, though, that you contact the company and ask them your question. Their customer service is supurb.

it gets a little tricky since the belt clip may be in the way for a left handed person. there is a "thumb rest" on both sides of the blade so it will open the same right or left. it's just a matter of getting the knife in position to open it. it opens quick and strong. if you want to take the belt clip off and carry it in your pocket for EDC then I have no problem saying "GET THIS KNIFE!!!"

The grooves are symmetrical on both sides of the handle. I like the feel, but they are prominent, so it may be a personal thing. The grooves are below scale level and taper towards the blade. The Pocket clip does NOT seem to be reversible for lefties, if that is a concern.
