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.

What signifies a guest is done eating?
Normally when a client is ready for the bill they will signal you to get your attention and ask for the bill. Otherwise, you wait until their plate is empty and they have put their cutlery down. If someone else is still eating at the table let them finish as you don't want to appear to be pouncing on them every few minutes. If the plate is not empty because the person is full the knife and fork are normally together side by side on the plate rather than at each side of the plate. At each side of the plate signifies they have put the knife and fork down, or whatever, to do something else with their hands. In the closed position means they are done. Basically, always keep an eye on your clients. When in doubt, give them extra time to finish. No one likes to be rushed out of a restaurant.
