yikes! DH gave me a left handed Gingher cutter for Christmas and I've never checked it out. I need to do that!
I just took it out of the box, and the first thing I noticed is that you have to manually retract the blade. I've gotten lazy using the self retracting Olfa. Feels nice in the hand though.

I have used both the Olfa and Friskars and couple months ago decided to try the Gingher (bought them on eBay) for pennies on the dollar.
Both my 8 year old GD and I are left handed so I bought some left handed ones along with bunch of blades that go with them.
I prefer the Gingher. It is a better constructed cutter compared to the others. As the saying goes you get what you pay for.
I picked up a right handed one has well since I use both right hand and left hand equally while GD uses only her left hand.

I think I am going to check out ebay for one. I have a pair of snips, and my sister got me a pair of the 8" knife edge scissors for by birthday last week and I love them I think I am going to hint to my husband that a seam ripper would be nice for mothers day and order the rotary cutter just because! LOL
