On #15, at least in America it is proper etiquette to switch the fork to your right hand after cutting with knife in right, fork in left. I do this completely naturally without even realizing I do it, I think it is just from watching my dad eat steak at the dinner table growing up.
If you are cutting and eating without switching hands it gives the appearance you are in a rush.
However in certain parts of the world not switching hands is the custom, I am not sure where.
givenchy - play. Bought it a couple weeks ago and have always gotten compliments when I’ve gone out.

Allow me to second Valentino. Amazing, amazing stuff. I wasn’t too keen on the smell from the bottle, but like all colognes, it smells totally different after you wear it for a few minutes. I have never had so many women suddenly lean in and sniff me before.
I give a thumbs up for Play. It seems a bit standard to me, but sometimes you want to smell standard, you know?
I also like dior homme. It’s my meeting musk, if you will.
You know, you screw a couple of counter girls over at sephora, and it’s amazing the habits and knowledge you pick up. Anyway, you poo-pooing cologne–it’s like a suit. You’ve obviously yet to wear one that fits you right. Get an attractive woman with good taste, and ask her to help you pick one out. (And when you sneak off in the morning, be sure to put a lil on the pillow–dirty trick yes, but memories are much more powerful with a smell cue.)[/quote]
Valentino “V”?
I wear some FCUK you right now, but when I shop for it I shop for something sexy, intelligent, and subtle.
European or Continental style is where the knife is held with the right hand (assuming one is right handed), the fork is held with the left, and fork prongs are kept curved down while dining.
The American style is where meat is cut with the knife in the right hand and fork in the left, but then the utensils are switched after cutting. The knife is placed across the top of the plate, and the fork is switched from the left hand to right. The fork prongs are curved up to scoop or spear food.
I naturally smell like fresh baked cookies.

Maximus B, Which Bruno Magli’s do you have?
I have heard they’re quite popular with many lady-killers.

I have the Branson model, which I don’t think they make anymore. I bought mine back in 2006, but they have many styles that are killer. They are a bit pricy, but I have found some on Ebay before.
