Bruce, my thinking may be real off base here, but here it is.

As a Righty(me too) if you held the knife in the right hand, the spine would be against your hand and the bevel would be facing down. Just insert it under what you want to pry and this would elevate the blade upward. Then just push down. Now if you wanted to pry UP with it, yeah it would be sorta hazardous for a righty. BUT if you're prying I would think I would have it in the sheath anyway.
