Knives for left-handers

Facts about a common misconception

In fact, there are manufacturers who offer knives for left- or right-handers - these are then sharpened only on one side and therefore have a pull in one direction or the other: A right-hander usually gets along better with a knife that pulls to the left than one that pulls to the right.

Nesmuk knives, on the other hand, are always sharpened on both sides and have an extremely sharp wedge (the "sharp angle" of the blade): therefore it makes no difference whether the knife is guided left- or right-handed.

The blades of the Nesmuk chef's knives of the SOUL, JANUS and EXCLUSIVE C90 series are equipped with one-sided hollow ground, but both sides sharpened, so that these knives are equally suitable for both left- and right-handed users.

The handle must also fit

Left-handers should also pay attention to a symmetrical handle: Some knives have deliberately asymmetrical handles, which are usually designed for the right hand and are difficult or uncomfortable for left-handed people. All Nesmuk knives have symmetrical, ergonomically shaped handles that allow both right- and left-handed users to work for a long time without fatigue.
