* Correct dining etiquette would maintain that the fork should always and only be used with the left hand. However, when a buffet is served at a party and the guests are eating while standing up, the fork can be held in whichever hand is suitable. * When eating at a restaurant or a guests home the fork is in the left hand and the knife is used by your right hand to cut meat or vegetables into small pieces. Once you have accomplished this then lay your knife at the inside rim of your plate and you can most certainly use your right hand with your fork again(unless you are left handed.)

∙ 11y agoThat depends on where you are and what you consider important.
In the U.S., we tend to use the fork to hold down items that we are cutting with a knife, then switch hands when we use the fork to eat the things that have been cut.
Many, if not all, European cultures just keep the fork in the left hand.
And then, there are cultures that don't use forks at all, so the question becomes moot.
