Left handed Wenger Matterhorn
on: December 30, 2022, 10:07:46 PM
Took a wrong turn today and ended up finding the aforementioned knife in an odd antique shop. I’ve been collecting for years and I have no clue what it’s deal is or what it’s worth.

I'm actually wondering, for those (like me) who are left-handed, are these any better than regular SAKs? I've been using standard ones for 16 years (though Wengers for only about 10, 6 for 85mm and larger), and I got used to them, I guess.

Same thing for my best friend. He just got used to the right handed models. I’ll let you know what he thinks of it when I get it in his hands.

Funny, he said exactly the same thing. I really can’t wrap my head around how to use it, there’s just so much that’s backwards on it!
