The perfect gift for a left hander

How many times are you stuck for ideas on what to get a friend or relative for their birthday or Christmas present? Well, if your hard-to-buy-for friend or relative is a southpaw, then it's easy!

Here are ten items just for starters that any left hander will be glad to receive:

  • fountain pen
  • watch
  • scissors
  • computer mouse
  • keyboard
  • wallet or purse
  • ruler
  • tape measure
  • pencil sharpener
  • Swiss army knife
And if they are sporty, then there are left-handed golf clubs, fishing rod reels, bowling shoes, cricket gloves, ice hockey sticks and baseball gloves.

If they ever venture into the kitchen, they'll be pleased to be given a left-handed bread knife or vegetable knife, potato peeler, can opener or corkscrew.

Keen gardeners would love left-handed secateurs or edging shears. Painters would give their left arm for a left-handed artist's palette. And don't forget there are also playing cards, guitars and notebooks designed especially for left handers.

If you're looking for a gift for a child, there are boomerangs, stationery sets and activity kits to choose from, not to mention junior golf clubs.

Still stuck for ideas?
