100% agree that to make them work in the wrong hand you need to use them in a way that feels weird but the original comment was:

> a righthanded person picks up the lefthanded scissors and deems them weird and uncomfortable. Which they are .. for the right hand of a right-handed person.

What I disagree with is the idea that you can know, just by picking up a pair of scissors if they are left or right-handed. Except for ergonomically shaped ones!, you can't immediately tell. It's only obvious that something is wrong when you try to use them, and even then, I don't think many people would know why.
