Are these scissors appropriate for left handed people or is it make only for a right-hander?

I am right handed but I believe the curve of the scissor handle requires left hand or right hand. I would go to the website to see if they make left handed ones to be sure.

They are right handed. I bought some conair pro rounded tip scissors on amazon for total cost of $12 and they work great. Maybe they have them for a lefty. I wish I had bought the scissors years ago. I've groomed my dogs for 25 yrs now and the rounded tip helps a lot!

yes, these are both leftie and rightie. Some knives have an asymetrical bevel. These knives are 50/50 bevelAnd the handle is for both hands too, not "D" shaped like a Shun handle is. For comparison, this handle feels similar to a Henkels ProS handle or a Wusthof Classic handle.

I bought these a bit worried since most of the reviews are from right handed people and I am a leftie. They work great for me (I'm a girl in my 20s who takes a lot of notes in college). They keep my hand from getting too tired. I think they're probably better for right handed people as the grip does have a different shape for each hand, but they still work great for me. I'd recommend them for lefties.

Hi. First off there knives are amazing but the blades are delicate. If dropped there is a chance they can chip. As far as being ambidextrous, I don't think it would be a problem for a left handed person to use. :)

This is a set of universal nibs. From what I have experienced, both left handed customers and right handed customers can use them with success.

It is shaped for right handed but I am left handed, mainly I use the back side to spread. I really do like them and they have a great weight for balance. I am happy

Sean, the shears can technocally be used with eighter hand if need be, but the safety fin of the shears is in the left side, which means this is geared to be angled with the right hand. Therefore, the shears will be slightly more difficult to use with your left, but not by much.

I believe they make one for lefties. Or you could wear it cross draw style. Should be no problems

I am left handed and use these to grade seam allowances. Gingher quality makes them precise cutting tools for grading seams. I used them upside down. Since I am only cutting a single layer there is no thumb pain as in using right handed scissors. I don't think that Gingher makes a left handed pair or I have never seen one.

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.

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.

The blade-tech website only lets you choose right hand, so I'm guessing they don't make a left handed version of this model. http://shop.blade-tech.com/product_info.php?cPath=1_116&products_id=607#.UZsz6rVOSok

Not being a lefty I'm not sure of the answer to your question, however the finger holes are the same size so you can use them upside down!? I don't know if this helps or not. I love mine!!

Yes. The handles are ambidextrous. They are not shaped in a right handed specific shape.
