They are so easy to write with and the colours of the ink are amazing.
good to find a site dedicated to lefties
We got 2 pairs of scissors for our lefty kid who was having right scissor difficulties. These work a charm and he can cut paper without frustration. Super quick dispatch too.
I'm absolutely rapped with my knife I'm left handed and struggled using right handed knives I always took great pride in my job as part of it was budding and grafting plus pruning but now it's just such a pleasure thanks to the right gear so thankyou
A good, sturdy measure. Will definitely buy another as the other lefty in the household was disappointed I didn't order 2!
So happy with my bread knife. As soon as I picked it up I knew it felt good as t’s balanced beautifully for me.
so much easier to use than the conventional ones.
We have a left handed daughter with no idea where to start - this shop has been such a great resource! Thanks!
With age come arthritis and difficulty writing. This pen is a game changer. I can write so much easier and neater now. Thank you Elite Left.
Great. Hate using right handed scissors as they are extremely uncomfortable in a left hand and I don't use my right hand. The lefty scissors are very comfortable.
Really love this vegetable peeler. So light and easy to use and I can swivel so easily - peeling towards me or away - both feel easy and safe. Highly recommend.
These were purchased for a colleague. He said they are awesome that his hand finally fits scissors. Only problem is after 45+ years of using right-handed scissors he is struggling with a simple cutting technique :):):)
My left handed grand daughter just loves this pencil sharpener. The size makes it much more user friendly than the small ones. Highly recommend.
Exactly how are left-handed products different?
-
Scissors have the blades reversed so the top blade is always on the left, making it easier to see the line to cut.
You thought you couldn't cut straight? Try a left-handed pair of scissors and see that you can!
A bread knife with the serrations on the right side of the blade will ensure you cut bread straight rather than creating door step slices.
It's not you, it's the right-handed knife you're using! -
Left-handed rulers are numbered from right to left (the same way a left-handed person draws a line from right to left).
Always reading tape measures upside down? Not with a left-handed one!
Pens are specially designed for left-handers who push the pen nib across the page (right-handers pull the pen across the page).
Easier to use, less strain and better handwriting!
Owned and Operated in New Zealand
Based in Christchurch, NZ, lefty owner Alyson Harris has experienced the struggle of using right-handed products. Establishing an on-line retail shop selling goods that are ergonomic and made entirely for left-handers seemed the best way to solve this problem for lefties everywhere.
Aren't most products made for BOTH hands these days?
-
You may think that kitchen knives, garden equipment, pens, etc, are all generic and easy to use for right-handers as well as left-handers, right? Wrong! There are many reasons why using the proper equipment made for the left-hand will make your life so much easier.
