On "S/V Windigo" with guests on board I prided myself nightly on presenting a PERFECT table. With a different napkin fold every night, every utensil, plate and glass equally spaced and exactly the same distance off the edge of the table, I was complimented numerous times by these fine, wealthy folks who knew of the "finer things in life." (I drank a lot of rum and pineapple during the process too)
Nah, just give everyone a like of cutlery and let them get on with it!

In 1970, as a sophomore in high school, I took Home Econimics, as it was being offered to males for the first time ever.
I learned alot about things kitchen related, including table setting, and we cooked some great chow.
Blade in, dude.
I was a banquet waiter in college and an upscale place and they were insistent that the blade be out to make the setting look more rounded.
i like the place the silverware in the middle of the plate on top of an unfolded paper napkin. My wife often gives me the hairy eye for that.
