Left hand carry

[flarp]

I'm right-handed and don't have particularly good manual dexterity with my left. I find I can still work the Cryo open and closed one handed without difficulty (or injury) using my left hand. The handle is wide enough and the frame lock thick enough to where I can get a good grip on it and pull it out of the way with my left thumb. The torsion bar also keeps the blade from closing too far without deliberate force, so I don't accidentally snap it shut on my fingers. So, for actual lefties, I'd imagine the Cryo would be pretty easy to use.

There are quite a few Kershaws and ZTs that are left-hand carry friendly. For true left-handed friendliness though, there are the ones that use the stud lock, like the Speed/Spec bump, Offset, and Mini Mojo which you can use either hand to unlock. Their carry options are very limited though, and only the Mini Mojo allows tip-down or tip-up.

Wait...since when does the Leek have a lefty clip option? And since when is the Vapor II in Elmax? I'm very confused.

As for righty-only knives, I also don't mind them. The Skyline gets a good amount of love, and there's no real option for lefty clip placement unless I tapped the G10. However, since I found the Knockout, I don't have much reason to worry about another EDC. It's perfect, and has both lefty positions with a deep carry clip.

I edited my post. I meant the speedform 2. It has right-hand only clip. I removed the clip on my leek because it's small and light enough not to need one.

Good to know more Kershaws will be left hand friendly soon. I would suggest a ZT 350, I use this as my left hand carry and its great. The liner lock is really easy to engage. Im a righty but I always wear a knife in my right and left pockets, so if I can use it with my very weak hand, then you lefties should be able to use it easily.

I wish the Spec/Speed Bump was left hand friendly, especially with its 'stud lock'. Im thinking about having someone drill and tap mine so I can use it as my left hand carry.

Good Luck!
