is this a left handed bread knife?

The blade is held in place with screws, so it can be reversed for left-hand cutting. We bake large round crusty loaves in a LaCloche, so we have to cut the loaves in half with a large knife in order to get them to a size that the ~9" bread saw can handle.

Hi. No not the one I received. I am right handed and love it because it slices thin. I tested using left hand and it works fine I just have to adjust the bread. Hope this helps.

Not by design but I can see how you could flip the blade around to accommodate the left hand

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.

As shipped it is set up to be used right handed. It would be a simple change to turn it into a left handed knife. Two new small holes would need to be drilled in the wooden handle and then the blade screwed into those holes. (It's a GREAT knife!)

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.

Does not appear to be, however, I am left handed and it works just fine. The one flaw that it has, unless improvements have been made is that the fan does not have a cover over it.

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

No, this is a left handed now. The "Lh" indicates that. I accidentally ordered it and had to return it. Righties should look for a "RH" in the description :)

I confirm that this is a single beveled knife for right handed persons. And a good one.

The one I received is a right handed can opener, and you could hold it with the handles away from you but it makes it awkward to use that way, and not just because I'm not left handed.

The bevel is made specifically for left or right handed people so spend the extra $30 for the correct knife..

It is double bevel cut. So it should work that way. I'm left handed too. Bread knives and boning knives are where you have to worry most. The blade states it is solid VG10 steel which is stainless steel and is supposed to be very good. My only complaint with the knife is that it tends to stick when cutting thru stuff due to the thickness of the blade. It's very comfortable in your hand though.

I purchased a left handed one. You might have to select which hand it is for it has been awhile since I ordered it.

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!

thumb knob (safety & closing) is on top side for right hander. opening is possible left handed, closing would not be nearly as efficient left handed, but that is coming from a right hander. Its like everything else, we all can adapt. Having said that my mother is left handed and could not close knife after several attempts. Opening is not a problem as the thumb stud is on both side of the blade. As others said pocket clip is reversible. I prefer the "flash model" overall and is my everyday carry.

It is possible, although a little difficult. You need to use your index finger to push the lock bar back, and then push the knife closed with your thumb. Opening is no problem for lefties or righties. The thumbstuds are ambidextrous. Give them a little push and the internal spring does the rest for you.

Honestly, I don't know. However, I can tell you that I am left handed and it does't make a difference in operation for me. Additionally, this was an exceptional purchase. It was easy to assemble and use. We use it for almost everything including homemade pizza, and the side burner is really convenient.

Yes. You can flip it around so whichever hand you prefer is holding the knife.

I tried to open the knife left handed and it is extremely hard to do. The pocket clip is not reversible. There is no screw hole on the opposite side. It is very well designed for right hand use but not left.

They do both cut in either hand, but if you use the right handed version in your left hand or vice versa, it can be a bit annoying since you can't see what you are cutting well (the body of the cutter covers it).
