Subject: [NAFEX] Grafting knife grip?

Hello All,
Finally bought a grafting knife with a single beveled edge. Now I have a
question...
I am following the instructions in the "Fruit Grafters Handbook" put out by
Burford and Fackler, and it does not
mention whether the beveled edge should be up or down, when making cuts.
I am right handed, and I assume that they sent me a right handed knife. When
I hold the knife in my right fist,
holding the knife horizontal, and the sharp side away from me, the beveled
edge is down.
