Apparently bread knives are also handed.

A couple weeks ago, after more than three decades on this earth, I discovered for the first time that if I slice the butter from the other end of the stick, I can get a nice clean, straight, vertical cut. Because the butter knife is only beveled on one side.

All my life, I've been slicing butter from the wrong end, and the knife has slipped off a third of the way down every time...

good for you on using the same butter knife for so long

Well I haven't tested this new discovery on many knives, but I'm certain I've had the same problem with many different ones over the years. At the very least, they're all beveled on at least one side...

A lot of kitchen knives, and other utensils are too.
