The serrated edge of a dinner knife is always placed toward the plate at the beginning of a meal. This applies to all sit down meals, including breakfast, brunch, luncheon, dinner (both formal and family style).
During the meal, once the knife has been used the blade is rested diagonally on the right side of the plate, serrated edge toward the center of the plate, with the fork (tines down) at 90 degrees to it. The fork may cross over the blade but it does not have to.
At the end of a meal the knife is place diagonally on the plate with the fork (this time tines up) parallel to it.
