Im left handed I use right handed scissors in my left hand all the time people say I should get them but I have no trouble is there a difference? And when I cut it looks good
Yes, there is a difference. If you’re using right handed scissors in your left hand, the natural movement of your hand tends to force the blades slightly apart when you cut, resulting in a more ragged cut than you’d get with the same scissors in your right hand. This isn’t so obvious with cutting paper, but when you get to more difficult materials, like fabric, it matters quite a lot.
Be aware that there are two different kinds of left-handed scissors around… there’s the sort that have blades in a right hand configuration but with left hand shaped handles, and there is the sort with left handed blades and left handed handles. The second sort work much better.
