For me, it was a left-handed scalloped bread knife.
For years I struggled to cut bread by hand. I watched my dad do it my entire childhood, but I could not cut bread to save my life. Then I got a left-handed bread knife. The scallops are on the opposite side of the knife from a wrong-handed knife.
THESE FUCKING THINGS ARE RIGHT HANDED?!
Yes, though I've managed to train myself to twist the knife slightly in the 'wrong' direction while cutting to counteract the way it naturally wants to cut. Similar to how you can use right handed scissors left handed if you pull with your thumb and push with your fingers instead of letting them do the natural motion while cutting.
