Is a left-handed person able to use these scissors?

Watch the dog demo video on the website. You'll see the two handed technique in that video. Basically you can hold and control the scissor by holding it at the back of the comb with your left hand, using your right hand to simply open and close the scissor. According to the manufacturer many left handed users have found this has worked well for them as their left hand is guiding and controlling the placement and movement of the scissor.

Sandra, I would think so; but, I bought these to use on my Maine Coon cats. I think that with practice, you could use them both ways. Good luck!

I think it depends on the type of the dog... If it's a poodle like mine, I tried them and I can cut the hair changing the direction so i can use the scissor with the left hand, but may be in straight fur would be more difficult

I am right handed so I don't know. I have looked at the video and Have not been able to use them. They don't seem to meet correctly and consequently don't cut the hair. This was a replacement, as the first pair arrived broken. Customer service was excellent with the replacement delivered two days later. They sent the small face trimming scissors and refunded my money, less shipping. I really wanted them to work.

I am right handed sorry I can not help you with your question. The tiny scissors is great for face and feet. ! I have only had them a few days but really like them.

No they are not, but the handles are made for either right or lefty's. They do have to be sharpened after a while and you do not want to wash in dishwasher. hope this helps :)

hello, Well, short answer is NO. I bought this set and they're right handed. You have to find the item that specifically says "left handed". Save yourself some trouble... :)

I bought them for my right-handed friend who's right hand was in a cast. She had to use her left hand to cut things and open bags. She said it worked like a charm, when the right-hand scissors would not work in her left hand.

right handed. Could possibly use left handed but the holes are chamfered. Mine are over 20 years young. As sharp and gorgeous as the day I bought them. I do admit I paid over $90 for mine ( came with a plastic blade cover lol) I was shocked at the price here.

There are left-handed versions of Felco tools, and those work better than trying to adapt to the curve of the right-handed version holding it in your left hand, although I will periodically switch hands as I prune for convenience of access to a particular cut or to give one hand a break when doing a lot of pruning and I have no problems using the right-handed version of the Felco with my left hand for short periods of time.

yes you can pen it left handed fairly easy. I just tested it out for ya. The knife is easy to open anyway, smooth as butter. You will have to get adjusted to penning it from the top by the guard. But it's easy for me and I'm right handed

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

Being right handed myself, I can not really say for sure, however, they are remarkably light weight for pinking sheers. (And they actually work well.) I would guess if you are used to other right handed scissors, you'll be fine.

The handles are symmetrical. They do not have molded grips for left or right hands. I am able to comfortably use mine with either hand.

These can be used left handed but there maybe some discomfort. The rubber parts of the handle are molded for a rightie, if you use it leftie, then your thumb will butt up against the inside edge of the handle. I wouldn't recommend it.

I believe so. We have not tried it left handed but the setup asks for left or right handedness.

It comes ready to use with the right-hand. However, there are two little phillip screws that you can easily flip the blade to make it for left-handed. So it does not matter which hand you choose.

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.

Absolutely. You can also alternate the direction of the clip for left pocket carry however it's not designed for left hand operation. At least left hand opening or closing.
