First, the good - and there's A LOT of good:
The quality of the utility is second-to-none. It
is expertly crafted, and will definitely last through years of repeated use. To top it off, you get
2 of them! You can't beat that.
Ease of use -
This isn't something you'll take out of
the box and instantly put in your performance repertoire, and that's not a bad thing. This will
take practice (and a lot of it), to master. Some techniques come faster than others, which allows
you a nice progression of difficulty. You can use this to your advantage by actually performing the
moves you learn quickly, while practicing the more advanced techniques as you work.
And
now, the drawbacks:
1 - As a lefty I was, naturally, a bit nervous. After a week or so of
practicing, I can already tell that, despite the fact that I can continue to use and progress with
it, it just won't ever get to that level of comfort that I would need, to reliably use it in a
performance situation. I'm simply not as dexterous, or capable working "as a righty", so for that,
I may have to put this on the shelf.
2 - The reappearance feature is knacky, for me. I
don't want to step into the realm of exposure, here - so all I can say is that the utility is
dependent upon body size, at times. If you're on the taller side, you might find some parts don't
"line up" perfectly.
So, if you can get past the hindrances of left-handedness (unlike me),
then you'll love this. If you have no problem working with both hands equally, this is a
no-brainer. It's an incredible piece of kit, and will work perfectly.
