> 3 dayMy lefty daughter is thrilled to be able to cut things with ease! She has always tried to use her right hand and it has been sloppy. These are a game changer!

> 3 dayAlthough the handles are left handed, the blades are right handed making it impossible to see where you are cutting. For a high quality company, Fiskars should know better!!!!

> 3 dayThis is a leftys dream. Most scissors are built specifically for the right-handed, some are designed to be used by either hand, but the unique feature of this pair, designed specially for left-handed users, is that the contours on the handles are not only well-shaped to fit the hand, but specifically, for the left hand. It also means that right-handed people will find this unusable - and will probably understand what a left-handed person feels, grappling with a pair of scissors for the right-handed.

> 3 dayDo not buy these scissors unless you just want them for cutting things open that do not have to be precise, like hard to get into packaging. The only thing left handed about these scissors is the handle. The blades are the same as right handed scissors. So if you try and cut on a line, you cant see the line, the blade is in the way. You end up cutting about 1/8 of an inch away from the line. I am an artist and they are useless for me as I need to be exact. I have 2 old Fiskar left handed scissors and they are true lefty scissors. I compared them to these new ones and saw the problem about the position of the blades. Unfortunately, they are dull so my only option is try and get them sharpened or try one of the other brands. I called Fiskars and they told me they are aware of the problem with these scissors but these are the only ones they make now. In fact, the guy at customer service, told me he gets complaints all day long about them. I cant figure out these good reviews on Amazon unless they are by people who just want to cut things open and arent trying to cut on a line.

> 3 dayHad my Fiskars scissors for over 30 years when they disappeared during a remodel. After briefly panicking, just bought some more. Was so relieved that absolutely nothing seems to have changed in the past decades in terms of quality. They look and feel no different than my old ones - which never lost their sharpness BTW.

> 3 dayMy poor son has been cutting with right handed scissors for 12 years, Thats how long it took me to realize he needed left handed scissors. Cutting is sooo much easier for him now. These work great and the grip is really comfy.
