Whats your favorite position for the pocket clip on your folder? And why? I was thinking blade up but since you can choose blade down I'm wondering if I'm missing something.
that's the way the Sebenza comes.
There have been instances where a blade spring loses tension and/or the blade gets snagged so that it is partially open and then you jam your hand into the pocket and... ouch.

(I have a knife in my possession that did that to its former owner.)
All of mine are carried tip down, mostly because that's what I'm used to.
Not if it's a fairly big tip-down opener design.
If it's a 4" Carson Flipper like a CRKT M16, or some of the assisted openers, tip-up would be upside down for fast opening.
And you will have to do a double or triple shuffle out of the pocket to get your hand far enough down on the handle to open it.

Some of my coworkers like to have impromptu "quick knife draw" showdowns when we meet in the hallways (obviously just for fun.) I don't often lose.
