Anyone ever hear of setting the knife blade out in a time of conflict? Living in the south I have been told that during the "unpleasantness" of the Civil War it was proper to turn the knife blade away from the plate to show we were in a time of conflict. Can anyone find the origin of behavior? as we have used this setting during the Gulf War and the Iraq War for family gatherings.
Thanks
