I'm going to say "no". I went to a grafting workshop, once, and I would have
found it extremely frustrating if I had to wait to get my hands on a knife,
and then had people watching over my shoulder to get the knife as soon as I
was done.
I agree with others that any sharp knife is probably okay. Personally, I
bought a grafting knife, and I like it because it's easy to keep clean and
sharp (I don't use it for anything else.) But I have occasionally used it
with the wrong hand, that is, with the rounded edge of the blade down instead
of the flat edge, and it still worked fine.
Best of luck,
Ginda
