Questions & Answers

It seems that three of them belong to the lefty group and three to the righty group, is that accurate?

You're all right!

What's the difference between these & the right handed ones considering there is nothing on the label that indicates they are left handed?

It is designed for both left hand and right hand use, the Westcott Shool Left and Right Handed Kids 5" Scissors, Blunt, 6 Pack item (16454) has both left and right handed functionality.

A six-pack of right-handed scissors just arrived, and it appears to be a right handed package. Could you please confirm that this is ?

Right and left handed children will benefit from the Westcott School 5” Scissors, Blunt, 6 Pack (16454) because of its ambidextrous handles. However, the right handed individual is likely to be more comfortable with the blade design.

If you use them as a left-handed, how does that work Does one hand scissors work? All my items are in good condition after I opened the package. The hands are tied. The ads advertised "left hands and right hands". ?

In the drop-down options under this item, I saw that blunt is an option, but I found these and they come in a box of 12 pairs. Here is the number of these Visit the Westcott Store 4.

Selected User Reviews For Westcott Right- & Left-Handed Scissors For Kids, 5’’ Blunt Scissors, Assorted, 6 Pack (16454)

Right-handed scissors are not the same as left-handed scissors
3/5

According to a report, these scissors are currently deemed ambidextrous. Although my lefty daughter finds them challenging to use (because of the blade orientation) she still uses them. As you can tell, these scissors are just regular right-handed scissors and should be labeled accordingly.

The child I was watching suffered an injury
3/5

In order to keep my kids safe when they are learning to cut, I purchased safety scissors. The next thing I knew, my 2 year old picked up the scissors and there was blood everywhere. While working with my 4 year old, my 2 year old picked up the scissors. It appears that he has a very deep cut (think of a razor blade The bleeding was profuse at first. Once the wound was bandaged, it stopped. He took off the bandage a few hours later and now the wound is Our next step will be to take him in to get stitches if the behavior continues. This is definitely not a safe product!.

I like these craft scissors because they are left-handed friendly
5/5

It breaks my heart to see my granddaughter struggle to use regular scissors when she is left-handed. However, she points out rightly that for her to succeed, she needs to simply learn to operate a more easily-operable box cutter. A regular pair of scissors is available. Basically, these are a kind of compromise that lets her work faster and with less effort. They can be used by lefties and righties alike. As they do not have a sharp edge, they will not work for cutting paper or for projects a first-grader is likely to I have used it to cut regular paper, construction paper, foam, and card stock and they are all perfect. I have also used it to cut felt, but it isn't as easy. My mentality is that they're a sort of transitional piece of equipment. A sharper pair of scissors will be needed when she needs them If you want to cut fabric, do it! Hopefully, she will become more adept at controlling scissors so she won't struggle as.

You can even use these if you're a lefty! Neither of my two kids are right handed, but both are Left handed children often have difficulty using scissors since most are not designed for them, making learning to cut more difficult
5/5

These scissors can be used equally well by left handed or right handed children. There is also an added bonus of the price. Somehow all scissors (and anything else for that matter) continually disappear. It's hard to find a better price for this level of quality and quantity.

I liked the colors and how well they fit The scissors, originally, I was looking for were scissors for my right handed daughter who was starting All of the colors were beautiful to her
5/5

The left-handed nature of my son, age 2, is very obvious. Having read some of the reviews and questions about these not being made for left handed use, I thought that if it didn't work for my husband, it wasn't a big deal as my daughter could use them. Well, I wanted to find out if these would be suitable for a left-handed individual. My left and right hand were both working at the same time with the scissors and I obtained sharp, precise cuts without using the paper to bend them. It won't be till my son is old enough to use them that I will know whether or not they are worth it, but so far I am pleased with my purchase.

True lefty scissors do not exist! What a wonderful surprise! The first review would have been useful to me if I had read it
3/5

I feel like the description is very misleading, because these are not ambidextrous scissors, they are simply right handed scissors. The three year old that I have is a lefty and uses her left hand to cut with right handed scissors. She is quite adept at this. I decided to experiment with cutting using both hands but using the right-hand method mainly for the sake of curiosity The blades of the kid scissors are oriented in an opposite way, so it's super hard to cut with them and the cuts aren't as precise. Having it so frustrating I have a 3 year old who struggles with left handed scissors, but these are the same as any right handed kid scissors. You will have to keep looking if you are seeking true leftie scissors. I'm posting a picture of her genuine left handed scissors (black/red) compared to this package.

The price is great
5/5

Obviously, Westcott scissors are a good buy since they are sharp and easily cut. It is important to read the description carefully since they come in both pointed and rounded designs, and you want to make sure your purchase matches your needs. The quality of these ones is just as good as that of.

Leftists are taking advantage of false advertising We have a few left-handed kids
3/5

You cannot use these scissors if you are left handed! It's probably easier and cheaper to search for a product listing that says the scissors are just for lefties and you can save yourself some money and time! **I wish I had thought more about buying these for my left foot before buying them A child with one hand can use scissors, but it doesn't exist as ambidextrous scissors. The blades are oriented in such a way that it cannot happen. Although righties and lefties can adjust the grip to make it feel comfortable to both, lefties will still find it difficult to cut things as the blade will be forced to apply a lot of force. When you are cutting with your right hand, you will force the paper, or whatever you're cutting, to bend or not cut, whereas if you're using your left hand you will force it in another direction A person using them will be left-handed.
This particular product seems to work great for kids who are right-handed. However, in this case, it is on the right We parents of lefties are left struggling to find lefty scissors in a world that values right-handedness, so claiming that something is left-handed does no good. If you would please change the title of this to reflect what you are selling, that would be fine. As soon as you do this, I will update my review score to reflect your responsiveness.
