A butter knife has rounder edges, is often smaller, and in a place setting will be placed on the outside of the knifes. A salad knife is often not included because a sharp enough fork to cut the salad will be made available. Its edges are sharper and it is longer in length.

Proper position for a dinner knife?

The dinner knife, or 'service knife,' in a semi-formal, or formal setting would be for the knife to be at the right of the dinner plate, with the blade facing the plate. If there is a butter plate and butter knife or 'spreader,' that knife should be on the butter plate to the left of the dinner plate, just above the cutlery on the left. The butter knife should be place with the handle facing to the right and the blade facing downwards. If there is an additional knife, such as a fish knife, etc., that knife should be to the right of the dinner knife, with the blade facing towards the dinner knife.
