Looking at the head of a Fokin Hoe is looks like there is a 'handiness' like in a scythe. Is that the case?

I only ask because I am a lefty.

Thanks.

If you don't get an answer, maybe ask Yury in this thread: https://permies.com/t/55266/Amazing-ploskorez-replace-usual-spade. Yuri sells them, and there's also some nice videos in there, too.

If it doesn't work in one hand, put it in the other fokin hand.

Ha good one. But trust you don't want to be close to me if I am forced to use my hand. Especially with a sharp tool! 🙄

It looks handed to me too.
Maybe if we ask they will make a batch of lefties?
Signed,
Another person who is dangerous when forced to use sharp tools right handed.
p.s. I love handing my leftie scissors to righties.
