Not completely. The shield hand, is for lefthanded people their right hand, instead of their left.

I thought the inventory thingie depicted where the shield went and where the sword went. I think that\'s what the previous poster meant about referring to \"shield hand\" instead of left/right.

Or is it just that my newbie eyes are missing something?

Got that right, you need to equip your mining pick in the hand with a shield symbol behind it in your inventory. Everyone is aware there is quite some confusion about the hands since all Yliakeans seem to be lefthanded, instead of righthanded. The inventory window is made for righthanded people though.
