This video has been posted before on these forums but at 4:40 he starts talking about the "proper" way to hold a knife. It's pretty much what Mark said.

(The whole clip is worth a look. I think it puts aikido tanto training in context).
Mr Vunak makes a lot of sense and Aikidoka practicing tanto-dori would do well to look at the context of knife combat..
