down2earthlv 0 Report post Posted July 23, 2006 all of my Dr. Slicks fit in either hand just the same, I don't think I've ever seen a pair of fly tying scissors that wern't ambidexterous....... Both 'thumb' loops are the same size and shape, none of mine are like those big Fiskars with the over molded plastic handles that only allow you to hold them one specific way.

halcyon 0 Report post Posted July 23, 2006 Has anyone found a supplier who sells left handed flytying scissors? Anvil makes left hand scissors in several styles they sell. And there is a major difference to those who do not know. The orientation of the blades (bottom and top when cutting) is critical to the scissors cutting cleaning. You can find anvil left hand scissor at http://www.anvilusa.com/lefty_series.htm Regards, Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
