What utensil would be the farthest left in a typical place setting?

In a most basic setting, on the left, between the napkin and the plate would ordinarily be the fork. In a broader setting, still referred to as a 'basic' setting, there may be a salad fork to the left of the luncheon fork or dinner fork. So, as a simple setting to visualise from right to left would be: Spoon, Knife (with blade facing the plate), Plate, Fork, Napkin. Above the spoon and knife would be a water glass and above the napkin and fork might be a butter plate, with butter knife, (handle facing towards the plate, and blade facing downward).
