* The proper etiquette of eating is to cut your food with a knife into bite sized pieces and then once cut you pick it up with your fork. You also use your knife to push smaller items such as peas onto your fork so they don't fall on the table or in one's lap. There is sometimes what they call a 'butter knife' which is a smaller version of the original knife and used for spreading butter onto your bun.

You can use your hand to eat, but using fork and spoon will not make you hand dirty unlike using your hands.

It is just a form of etiquette. It is also easier to cut food with a knife rather than your fingers. Although there is finger-food which we eat with are hands.
