The best motion for peeling fruits and vegetables is to move the peeler towards the body. This is not possible with a right-handed peeler held in the left hand as the cutting edge is facing the wrong way. Many left-handers have developed a technique for peeling by moving the peeler away from the body and ended up scraping knuckles in the process!
A left-handed peeler has blade positioned so that it can be held in the left hand and the peeling action is towards the body. Even better, all our peelers are sharpened on both blades so they can be used effectively in either direction and with either hand. You can thus share it with right-handers in your house!
