Left Handed knife

[ChrisM]

Is there such a thing as a left handed Chef's knife? My friend said they got a set for cheap because it was "left handed" and i can't cut a carrot lengthwise straight with it to save my life.

Chris, I'd keep practicing!

So Joe, are we in agreement in saying there is no such thing?

google lists several companies, including kershaw, as selling left handed kitchen knives.

Well i can't see any difference his knife and any of my knives except i can't cut straight with it

Chris,

There are a few knife makers that DO make left handed knives .... I think the main difference is t the handle end .... look at the handle and see if it has a palm swell on the left side.
