I've used Felco number 2 secateurs for 20 years. I am left handed and was curious as to how the left hand specific Felco 10 performed. The Felco 10 model took me several weeks to get used to using after using right handed models for 20 years. This is neither a pro or a con, just an observation. The open/close lock on the right side of the unit is the hardest thing to get used to but as for a left hander it's perfectly placed and never is accidentally closed/locked as per the right handed Felco 2 models. The pivoting lower grip works very well to easy repeat strain injury and also assists to limit hand soreness when using the secateurs for hours at a time. However, the pivoting handle did pop out from it's mount once but popped right back in again. I suspect this is the main weakness of this model. As per Felco number 10 units the blades are truly excellent, the bypass mechanism is first class, the handles close very narrow and close so they suit small hands and the return spring is perfectly tensioned to make prolonged use a pleasure. In summary I do not regret purchasing the left hand specific model and will use them extensively until no doubt I'll misplace them (again) If you are left handed and already like using Felco right handed secateurs like the Model number 2 that I also use then I'd stick to the right handed model simply because mechanically they are perfect - as good as a pair of secateurs gets - if you are left handed and want to upgrade to a high end pair of left hand specific secateurs then I can recommend these Model 10 Felcos.Read full review

Came across these little beasties and was mightily impressed to see they decided to look after the other 10-15%...us lefties. Have used Felco2 for 20 odd years around home, and now using the Felco17 in a commercial setting, pruning macadamia. Can use all day, and with rolling left handle, no blisters. Great product, as you would expect from this brand.
