I put your chopsticks in your hand with the points apart, that way when you tense your index finger, the gap closes and holds the bit of food. (spring loaded)

I was taught, two fingers on the top chopstick is the proper way, but found it difficult to control. So i only have one finger on the top chopstick.

Also fellow chopstick users, were you taught that polite way is take food is to approach the item with the chopsticks on either side of the item?

Dad gave me some story about the thumb and index finger, holding a sake cup of wine, as if you are toasting the party for good health or something...
