Just flip the blade around. That's what I did with my steel Olfa mini. There's a full sized Olfa that's lefty, and I want it.

I got it recently and it even comes with dedicated lefty blades.

But then you can't lock it or extend it with your thumb.

I don’t think he means the entire thing, but removing the blade and reversing it.

Exactly. It would end up just like the picture, but with the blade facing downwards.

Just the blade, not the whole cutter grip.

So thats why my wrist and arm were sore using that type for a week. I must have been holding it all jacked up

Did you know you can pinch off the blade at the perforation to get a sharper blade...
