It IS the clockwise/counterclockwise issue that makes the difference in being able to use these grilling hooks without awkwardly twisting the wrist. Another backwards tool is a ladle with the little pouring spout on the left side of the bowl, these are made for right handed people. When a leftie uses such a ladle the spout portion is on the wrong side of the bowl; if you have such a ladle trying pouring something out of it using your left hand.
