So that's where the "Knife and Fork Degree" comes in?
For a couple of years we lived near Seattle. I affiliated with a GLofWA lodge for those years. At refreshment after a third degree they would recite a "Knife and Fork Degree" or "Third and a Half Degree". Of course it was not a degree of any sort just a local tradition done by some lodges in that region. And it was done after closing to not be a part of the sanctioned ritual and thus not in conflict with it (note difference of how lodges near Houston did their Chamber of Reflection wrong). Very fun talk.
On the wall in some lodges I've visited I've seen a framed apron on the wall with a knife and fork in the place of the compasses. This local tradition might have been much wider in the past than it is now.
Yeah, what Brother Zack said.Under the jacket unless the jacket is buttoned or when wearing a double-breasted jacket then it is worn outside.
