I'm a lefty and I've never had problems using a rotary cutter. I just pick up and go. :lol:

My rotary cutter - an Olfa - can have the blade switched to either side. All you need to do is put the blade on the side where it's closest to the ruler. I have 4 rules, and all but three can be flipped end to end to be on the left or right. Ironically, the Fiskars one can't be switched.

I'm a lefty and I don't have a problem with rulers or scissors or any of the tools really. I guess we learn to adapt......lol.

Ginghar makes a rotary cutter and scissors for lefties but get ready to pay the price?? I am a leftie also but have learned to usr the right handed tools!!!!!

Martelli makes the high end rotary cutters, and they make a left-handed version. Most others can be set up both ways.

Kai makes wonderful scissors, comparable to Ginghers in my opinion (at lower prices), and they make a couple in left-handed versions.

I don't see any difference in rulers. Half the time when I pick one up, it's going the wrong way for my use at the time.

Haven't read the other posts, but wanted to mention that Martelli makes an excellent rotary cutter (ergonomic for hand position) in both right-handed and left-handed versions. Here's the website:

You can see it demonstrated in the videos section.

We have several lefties in our group.. When we pin a quilt for hand quilting, we tease them, that they do it backwards and it takes us twice as long to take them out! They are great hand quilters though.

Check ebay - sometimes the Ginghers are available there for around $20.00 plus shipping

My mom is a lefty and was having trouble with her rotary cutter. I just took the blade and put it on the other side for her and now she has no problems. And yes, there are left handed scissors.

Martelli makes an ergonomically correct rotary cutter for both right hander (red handle) and left handers (black handle). It is much easier on the wrist, and I believe safer as well.

If you purchase another brand or type, you have to change the blade from one side of the cutter to the other in order to have accurate cutting.
