Tools Designed For Southpaws

This holiday season, lefties don't have to be left out. Professional Cutlery Direct, Inc., www.cutlery.com, is offering a line of products designed specifically for left-handed use. PCD, the leading provider of professional kitchen tools to the home cook as well as the professional chef, has worked for years to encourage manufacturers to offer handed tools in two models.

While most of the items we sell work well in either hand, some are designed for right-handed use only, a significant inconvenience for our left-handed customers, said Terri Alpert, CEO and founder of Professional Cutlery Direct, Inc. Our line of left-handed products has really caught on with our southpaw customers.

The sampling of products listed below includes some of the best kitchen products available to left-handed cooks this holiday season.

* Lamson Left-Handed Slotted Turner - One of PCD's hottest selling spatulas, Lamson Left-Handed Slotted Turner, a very flexible slotted turner, is outselling its right-handed counterpart. Made in USA.

* Left-Handed Bread Knife - Global's nine-inch bread knife is offered in both hands. Made in Japan.

* Left-Handed Deba - Ground on one side for the straightest possible cuts, the Global 7 inch Deba, ideal for working with raw, delicate fish, is made to order for righties or lefties. Made in Japan.

* Left-Handed Sashimi Knife - Also ground on one side and great for raw fish, the 10 inch Sashimi Knife from Global is available in left-handed form. Made in Japan.

* Left-Handed Corkscrew - With its finely polished surface and brushed matt finish, the left-handed corkscrew is well suited for long corks. Made in Germany.

* Both-Handed Saucepan - Ideal for sauce reductions, melting butter, heating cream, and more, this French-made saucepan with a special lip on each side for right- or left-handed pouring, is a must-have for southpaw kitchens.
