Is it a right-hand blade or a left-hand blade?

When ordering tiller blades, it's important to keep in mind that there are actually two different blades on a tiller: a right-hand blade and a left-hand blade. How do you know which is which?

 

Step 1: Remove the tiller blade from the tiller.

 

Step 2: Hold the tine so that it dangles from the bolt holes.

 

Step 3: Holding the blade in front of you, turn it so that the cutting edge faces you. If the blade curves to the left, it's a left-hand blade. If it curves to the right, it's a right-hand blade.

 

The blade pictured above is a left-hand blade.
