The handle is not symmetrical, on the fourth picture you can see this "corner" in the handle, it is not on the other side. There the handle is rounded. That's why I suspect it's designed for right-handers. I held my Santuko knife with my left hand to test it, but I can't judge it because it always feels strange to me to hold a knife with my left hand. - It's best to go to a shop and test it.
