Maped - Expert Left-Handed 8.25 Inch Scissors - Multipurpose - Left Handed

I haven’t had left handed scissors since the 1st grade. And those were also pointy, but child safety wasn’t a concern in ‘80’s.But I digress. Lefties have taken one more step in overthrowing the patriarchy by making quality left handed scissors.I’ve had the scissors a few weeks and I don’t need them for much. When I do use them it feels so natural. Sometimes I have to remember not to put them on the right and then not to hold the scissors up side down. Life long habits are hard to break.These scissors cut what you need blades are sharp and on the correct side! Grip is comfortable.Suffer no longer. There no such thing as ambidextrous anything. Set your your self free. Watch your friends and family suffer for awhile with your fabulous new scissors.

My better half just loves these left handed scissors. They fit her hand to a “T”.

I own very nice left-handed dressmakers' shears. They were expensive, and worth every penny because I sew. But it is almost impossible to find left-handed scissors for everyday tasks. There just aren't many affordable left-handed scissors available. I found these and bought multiple pairs for different rooms in my house. They work great for general office tasks. An added bonus is that they are actually marked "left-handed" on the scissors themselves, so it is easy to know In picking up the correct pair for me, as opposed to the ones used by the rest of the family. An excellent purchase!

Finally bought a pair of left-handed scissors. These are good scissors, they're sharp and they work well and I know they're mine because they're left-handed.

my left-handed daughter was SO thrilled to use these, it changed her crafting world. Honestly, I (right-handed) didn't think it would matter so much but it makes a big difference.I looked at a bunch of options .. these are the best price for a single pair

After 40+ years living in a right-handed world, I decided it was time to try out some actual left-handed scissors. These looked like a decent value and actually have the blade orientation correct for left-handed use as opposed to some of the scissors advertised as left-handed that still have a right-handed blade orientation.If you are a lefty, you've probably already figured this out since we are all brilliant thinkers, but the blade orientation is super-important. If you use a right-handed scissors with your left hand, the natural hand pressure of the thumb on top pushing slightly out tends to push the blades APART causing them to not cut well. A true left-handed scissors have the blades reversed so your left hand naturally presses the blades TOGETHER for improved cutting. These scissors are built properly and cut very well!PROS:* Sharp* True left-handed blade orientation* Cut well* Appears to be well madeCONS:* Super contoured handle is only comfortable use left-handed with one hand positionI'll elaborate on that con. Having the finger holes angled and contoured makes the scissors nearly impossible to use with your alternate hand. There are sometimes where I would want to use them in my right hand, but that is nearly impossible with these. You also need to get your hand fully seated in the scissors for them to fit your hand. For a quick pick up and snip, this is kind of a pain. If you are doing a big cut and keeping them in your hand for a long time, this is probably fine and would be comfortable for the long haul. I've unfortunately discovered, that isn't how I most typically use scissors. I think I would prefer just a standard non-contoured handle but with the blades arranged for a left-hander. These are unfortunately proving difficult to find for a reasonable price.

Comfortable to hold and write with. I have used multiple designs of left handed pens in the past, unlike the other's , these pens did not create that callous on my ring finger. ( It’s a lefty thing).The amount of ink in these pens is remarkable. I feel like I have been using the same pen for almost a year and it is the only pen I write with on a daily basis.

I have struggled with having nice scissors my whole life as I am left handed. In grade-school I had teachers who did not believe there was a difference (there is) and no such thing existed...then they graded me poorly in my cutting skills as I ravaged construction paper with right-handed scissors. I can find lefties now, the problem is we have to pay for the privilege for Fiskars or specialty like pinking shears. These are great! They work fine in my hobby pouch and are very sharp new with no need to sharpen. These are the real thing, left-hand scissors, and at a reasonable price too. If I need a pair for light to medium duty I will definitely buy these again. (They are molded grips for lefties by the way.)
