Any pics of Dragonfly in pocket? How does it ride in pocket?

I've got my eye on a Dragonfly (well, either a Dragonfly or a Robin) and was wondering what it looks like clipped to pocket. Does it ride high, low, in between? What does the FRN clip look like from outside the pocket? Is it as noticeable it's a knife as a standard metal clip?

I'm considering the Dragonfly over the Robin because although the Robin has the reversible clip (which I like), it looks like it would ride a little higher in the pocket than the Dragonfly, and the metal clip looks like it might be more easily and readily identified as a knife.
 
I feel it rides a little high, but I only have experience with the SS version. I personally feel that this is one knife that would greatly benefit from tip down carry to allow it to ride lower in the pocket.
 
I have an old Endura with the molded FRN clip like the Dragonfly and I find it's pretty innocuous in terms of looks. When it used to be my EDC it was really only people familiar with knives that ever pegged it for what it was by looking at the clip. If NKPs ever said something about it, which was seldom, they usually guessed it was a Sharpie or similar type marker.
 
I took some comparison pics: SS Dragonfly, Calypso Jr., and Large Regular Sebenza.

Hope they help!
 
My stainless Dragonfly rides a bit high. But, if clipped in the change pocket in jeans, it's perfect, as a belt tends to sit right on top and helps to hold it in place. It's really perfect that way. Otherwise, I like it loose in a back pocket.
