left handed shears

Hi all, I am a new groomer and my shears that I have are pretty crummy.

I am left handed, so it is not always easy to find shears!

I am aware that prices go from around $30 up to $500 a pair! It would help me if someone could tell me what is a good mid-range (quality but not ridiculous!) left handed shear would be.

Wow I just realised I spelled my user name wrong.. haha left off the T at the end. Oh well.

umm I would go to Petedge.com they usually have good quality. I have bought really nice ones there ,and I havent noticed them added extra for leftie ones. Umm price range tho I'd say between $65-$120. Lemme know how it goes.

Hi CS! Welcome.I prefer Andre Tisserand shears.They keep their edge very well and when they get dull they can be sharpened.I've never paid attention as to whether they offer left-hands, try pro dog supplies or pet edge online,there's also The Dogs Outfitter and Ryan's pet Supplies. Good luck!

Ok I'll look into that brand. None of the sites seem to offer lefty shears.. I've gone on all the sites you mentioned..
