Spoons then forks then knives

[B0bbin]

In your cutlery drawer, do you have spoons on the left, then forks, then knives? That makes sense to me because when you lay them out on the table it's forks on left and knives on the right. My DH puts them away (wrong) as knives on left then forks then spoons, just because he says it sounds right- when you say, 'knives, forks, spoons.'
I'm fully aware of the current world problems which are affecting us all terribly. This is still important😉

It's forks, knives, spoons !
Like setting the table for a meal with soup starter

There are usually additional little compartments for little dessert spoons & forks
plus big compartments for serving spoons & forks

Knives, forks, spoons, teaspoons here.
My Mum used to say “Ooo crossed knives!” and quickly uncross any knives that fell crossed on the table. She believed they forewarned of arguments.

I do knives, forks, spoons, but that's because that's how my organizer thingy is set up. 🤷

We do it your way. Which is how my mother did it, so it must be right. She knew things.

Knives, forks, spoons, teaspoons in my house too.

Sorry I meant forks, knives, spoons. It’s late...

Mine is spoons, forks, knives, soup spoons facing the opposite way to dessert spoons. I only have three soup spoons.

So many people getting it wrong. It’s forks, knives, spoons. Obvs

Absolutely! It's the only way that makes sense

I mean soup spoons are in the same spoon slot...

Forks, knives, big spoons, small spoons at the bottom horizontal (opposite directions because different spoon types.... lol) because of how the tray is.

Spoons, forks, knives as I use spoons & forks the most. Large prep knives on left of cutlery tray as its too small for them & I don't like large knives on display on surfaces. .

Knives forks spoons - I am left handed though!

Right to left
Steak knives, knives, fork, spoons.

Wait no, that's left to right

I'm with your husband (not literally 😁)

Spoons forks knives... and I get annoyed when DH sometimes changes the order. Teaspoons are in the front, just because of the layout of our cutlery drawer, but if they were all side by side, I think I’d have them next to the knives, so both spoons don’t get mixed up.

Knives, forks, spoons.

In my drawer it varies. There are frequent swaps and invasions. I thought that normal.

Forks go in the middle, we are all agreed on that.
Knives are held in the right hand so obviously they go on the right.*
Spoons are all that's left, so that's where they go.

*Left handed people may arrange their drawers differently.

I ageee with you!

But my drawer organiser even has pictures of what should be where...

I ignore it because it's clearly wrong 🤣🙈

Spoons Forks Knives and then tea spoons and kids cutlery run horizontally across the bottom in our tray

Forks, knives, spoons.

Forks, knives, spoons, L to R.
I’ve worked in restaurants, and that’s how I’ve always seen it done. Makes sense, as that’s how you’d lay them out (well, dessert spoons and dessert forks at top.)
If someone else took it upon themselves to rearrange my drawers, they wouldn’t be back in my house. It’s beyond rude and aggressive. I wouldn’t assume to do that in anyone else’s house.
I just don’t get it.

You are right 😊

Forks, knives, spoons.
