Shortcut keystrokes

I can navigate around the desktop pretty well without a mouse using just
keystrokes. Is there a keystroke shortcut that mimics a right click on an
icon?

SHIFT + F10 To display the shortcut menu for the selected item.

SHIFT + F10 without a selected item gets you the right click a blank space
context menu.

There should be a key on the bottom that looks sort of like a menu that
brings up the context menu for wherever the cursor is.
