International left-handers day: Top Products specifically made for left-handers

August 13th is internationally recognised as Left-handers Day. Almost 10% of the world’s population is left-handed, with 1% being ambidextrous. Since most people use their right hand for routine tasks, most tools and devices are designed for right-hand use. This can prove to be mildly annoying for left-handers, who have to devise their own ways of overcoming the design shortcomings. So, for International Left-Handers Day, we bring you the top products made specifically for left-handed use.

Perixx Perimice-719L Left-Handed mouse

Working with a regular mouse can be quite tedious as a left-hander. While you eventually get used to it, it still doesn’t feel right to be controlling the cursor with your right hand. The Perixx Perimice is an ergonomic mouse designed for left-handers. This mouse encourages a “handshake” position for your hand and fits comfortably within your palm. You can place it on the left side of your keyboard and use it in a way that comes naturally to you. The ergonomic design also reduces muscle strain while working long hours.

Flo Digital Left-Handed Keyboard

If you’re left-handed and working a desk job that requires typing a lot of numbers, working with a regular keyboard can be quite tedious. Keyboards, like every other device, are designed for right-handed use and come with the number pad placed on the right side. If you’re a lefty, you must constantly find yourself reaching your hand in the opposite direction to type in numbers. The Flo Digital keyboard comes with the number pad on the left side of the keyboard, vastly simplifying the process of entering numbers with your left hand. On top of that, its alphabet keys have an ‘A’ slant which makes typing much easier too.

Henrix Pro Left-Handed Guitar

Guitars are traditionally designed for right-handed use, meaning you pluck the strings with your right hand and press the chords on the fret with your left hand. This proves to be a barrier for left-handed people while learning the guitar. Luckily, there are guitars designed specially for left-handed people which allow them to pluck the strings with their left hand while using the fret with the right. The Henrix acoustic guitar is an excellent entry-level guitar for beginners designed for left-handers. Most famous left-hand guitarists through the decades like Jimi Hendrix, Albert King, Paul McCartney, and Kurt Cobain have used left-handed guitars.
