Yes, I know that, but thanks because a lot of people don't know that.
I've been trying to visualize the blade direction. If you're right handed it turns clockwise, but if you use it in your left hand that makes the blade go counter clockwise. So it's a left handed cutter, right? :lol: :lol:
about the direction the blade turns. no matter if you're right handed or left handed, the blade turns counter-clockwise when you cut with either hand, as long as you're cutting away from your body outward. the only way the blade would turn clockwise is if you start cutting away from your body and roll it towards you. i've never seen anybody cut that way. it's kinda like tires on a car, going forward the tires run counter-clockwise, they only turn clockwise when you go in reverse.
