Lena, I don't think I disagree with Biggzie; they are very awkward for me to cut my nails with, so I suspect that they are left-handed, since I'm not. I can live with that, since I usually use the file on my nails. For cutting other things, it seems to be ok.

I should probably add that I've carried the Micra every day for several years, and (since I've never cut wire, but only plastic and paper) the scissors are still fairly good. I don't think they ever had the nice feel or sharpness of the smaller Spirit scissors.

Today I carry both the Micra (in my pocket) and the Swiss Spirit (on my belt or in my briefcase).
