JamesR Report post Posted November 5, 2016 Just wanted to make some of you aware of the edge beader I just purchased from Barry King. I am left-handed so some tools are a little awkward for me to use. I wanted a tool for putting borders on the edge of my work (creaser) but figured I would have to manage with a right-handed tool. Anyway I almost ordered the right-handed version but instead I emailed Barry King tools about using the tool in my left hand. To my surprise I was told they have a left-handed version. I now have a high quality tool that works very well for me. Thanks to all at Barry King tools. Jim Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TinkerTailor Report post Posted November 5, 2016 I am pretty much ambidextrous, but right handed. I play hockey left but golf right and im pretty good at both. I have taught myself to saddle stitch both ways, and I will choose whichever is easier for that area of the project. I have wanted a matching set of lefthanded groovers myself, because there just seems to be spots on everything that I want to get to from the other side. There are a few standard leather tools I prefer to use in my left hand interestingly. The tandy safety skive is one. I find if i cut away from me with my left hand i can see what i am doing better and when I blow on it, the shavings clear better it seems. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
