Does this shear require both hands?

I only use one hand. It does require a decent grip to be able to cut for very long. I often change hands dependimg on the location I am trying to cut.

I have, on occasion, had to use both hands. This is only when I am trying to cut through too much grass or tough weeds. I have had shears that were easier to use, but they were not as sharp and durable as these shears are.

It comes ready to use with the right-hand. However, there are two little phillip screws that you can easily flip the blade to make it for left-handed. So it does not matter which hand you choose.

The cutting blade is in a fixed position. I think you would have to work right handed

It appears it can be used by both. I am right handed. It is metal and cuts well.

It will work well with either hand. It is not conformed to either right nor left.

Yes! Very easily too. One side has a straight blade and the other is surrated. I use it heavily to cut turf and sod away from irrigation heads and boxes. Perfect tool

It takes a bit of muscle to complete a crimp, so yes, you will need both hands. Be aware that just closing the jaws (no effort required) will compress the ring enough so that you cannot get it off or move it.

Yes, it does. Easy to use in either hand, comfortable grip and well balanced handle. Can't go wrong with this knife, I'm very satisfied.

I can use it with either hand and it works so well, I have begun to use it all the time. Good luck!

I have used this opener with both my left and right hand. It works equally well not matter which hand I am using.

Yes. The handles are ambidextrous. They are not shaped in a right handed specific shape.

Hi James, I have not had my shears long enough to answer your question. They are brilliant and I have not had the need to adjust them to date. The shears do come apart for easy cleaning and I have not tried to do this as yet because they are so easy to clean. Sorry James, as I am unable to offer more help at this stage. deb

It is easy to remove with one hand. I usually use both hands to stabilize, but not really necessary.

not really i have moved it to my left side when i have a hammer on my right, but i still use my right hand to retrieve it. you would have to spin the drill around when you take it out and replace it with your left hand. hope this helps. Verdis

Not strictly. I am right handed, and although I mostly use it with my right hand, I have no problem using it with my left hand. So if you are left handed you should be able to use it with either hand.

No you need both hands. There are two rings on either side and a button that has to be pushed.

It does, But takes a little more care and attention. It means you have to lean the scissors over on to the Flat edge to ensure that you are only sharpening one side. Takes a little more time but works...
