Lefty or Ambi.... report...

[vampyrewolf]

Just curious...



how many of us are either lefty or ambi enough to even write left handed?



I haven't found much I can't do left handed... other than the kitchen equip at work thats set up for a right hander.

I am right handed. However, I try to use my left hand too as I believe in ambidextry. I can write with my left hand, but the writing is - to say the least - ugly!

I am left-eye-dominant, and tend to be left handed, but my "strong" side is my right side, as when I am using my whole right arm or leg. I write left handed, but cannot write with my right hand, and I throw with my right, and cannot throw with my left. I use a forward grip with a knife in my right hand, but a reverse grip feels more natural in my left hand. I could go on, but in general I am somewhat ambidextrous, or is it just confused? <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

Left handed and right-brained (probably why I'm a Mac user), but use scissors (not a knife) and calc. keypads with the right (I guess numbers are a left brain thing...).

Happy Holidays everyone!

I am also the same as Rex.I have heard that only 1 in every 250 people are like this.

I'm a true Lefty & of course write with my left . I catch with my right (throw with my left) and use scissors with my right.

ps I also use a Mac!

Ah, the world of Southpaws...:p

I'll admit it...I'm a natural-born right hander. But, I do use my left hand equally well in deploying my knives (Spydies). (Go figure?<img src="tongue.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>) I also use my left hand when I make my custom knives especially when I grind the left side of the blade. (This process took me a long time to master, let me tell you.<img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>)

I just wish that Spyderco made a bigger variation of left-handed knives. That way, I could carry more Spydies in my left pockets for back-up and such.

first i tried using scizors left handed which obviously doesnt work. then i tried to use my right hand which felt really weird. so i learned to use knives and tearing ;-)

Just left handed! Born that way and can't change.

BUT

[ken]

Now I will try to finish!

BUT:

Like other lefty's we are a least in our right minds.

I'm wierd, right handed by nature, but also i'm left eye dominant.
As for opening <img src="spyder.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>s I can do either about as quickly, I shoot right handed using my left eye to aim with handguns,Or point shoot a shotgun.
With a scoped rifle or a bow I use a righty, while I can write with my left I fear the law suites for impersonating a DR <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> Ron

I can't write left handed, but I do all my handgun shooting left handed, and I'm ambidextrious with knives. I can now shoot better then I ever could right handed. I decided to change to a lefty shooter about 8 yrs. ago after I broke my right arm for the 5th time, in a motorcycle accident. On this one I had to have pins put in. Because of all this I will have severe authritus someday, and I injoy fireing hand cannons, so I decided it was best for me. RKBA!

[cmassicotte]

I'm just a righty.

Rex, I don't know if you are confused, but now I think I am! <img src="tongue.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

There is no right way to do a wrong thing

[mac_heath]

Righty here. I can deploy knives left handed, but rarely cut with them in left. I taught myself to brush my teeth and eat left handed (even with chopsticks!). When I was first learning to write Japanese, I started with my left hand. It wasn't much worse than my right. Unfortunately, I switched and lost that ability.

I use the computer mouse in either hand.
