Knife and Forks

[Tash.]

Bit of a random one, but there is a point to it I promise
Recently I noticed that I maybe use my knife/fork wrong. For example, I eat with my knife in my left hand and my fork in the right. If you go in to a restaurant then they are set the opposite way. So my question is, which way round do you hold your knife/fork?
My sister also holds her knife/fork the same as me, as does my Dad but not my mum haha.
Ooh and vote in poll please

Fork in left hand

had to think about that one for a minute lol

Both.
Depends really. Having fork in right hand is so much easier to eat. But knife should be in right hand so its easier to cut.

Left handed but hold them the common way

At home I usually use a fork by itself with my right hand but in public I have manners and use the fork left handed and the knife right handed.

fork in left hand, knife in right

if im not using a knife then i'll hold the fork in my right hand

[dirrty]

i tend to switch them during eating for some reason. so dunno

[Volumise]

fork in my right hand and knife in my left..
My friends use it the opposite and always tell me im holding it wrong but if the forks in my left hand, it just doesnt feel right..

i am in the majority one (the second one) that's because it's the right one i think

From a young age I was taught to hold knife in the right hand and fork in the left and was told it's really bad manners to do it the other way. My parents are really strict though
