You mean the 304S right? You can use it with either hand.

They don't make left handed versions, Itigar. However you're in luck, I can modify a right handed model so that it can be wielded in a left handed fashion. It will cost a bit more. Labor you understand.
(aw, crap. Damn you, Bart)

Thanks, Bart.
Itigar, Barts right it can be used with either hand. The sword has a hex nut holding the hilt assembly in place. All you have to do is take it apart and turn the grip around.

yup, all you gotta do is put your left hand on top. it is a pretty easy mod, but if you need help I can walk you through it

I thought to wield left handed; you held it by the blade and hit them with the pommel end. To think I have doing this wrong all these years; you learn something new every day I guess...

You can tell the left handed ones, the pommel and the cross guard are on backward.
