In a right handed pair the upper blade sits on the right, which is what keeps the cutting line visible and pushes the blades together as a right hand squeezes. A left hand does the opposite and forces them apart, so the paper folds instead of cutting. Swapping the blade order fixes it; reshaping the handles alone does not. Buy properly reversed pairs for a class set. See craft scissors, Westcott and classroom supplies.
