Does anyone carry their Delica like a traditional pocketknife (i.e. down in their pocket without a clip)?
 
No, I have lost too many knives that way. Though I will say that the Delica stays in place better than any knife I have every owned.
 
I carry all my folding knives that way. Just personal preference and I've never lost one even when I'm on the motorcycle. I have the Delica in ZDP-189 and love it.
 
I did for a while, actually. Primarily as to not have a little blue dingy sticking out of my pocket at work (office environment). I tend to prefer pocket knives. Easier to deploy them, consistent, etc.
However, I do carry my G10 Dragonfly in my jean watch/coin pocket and love it.
 
And then there's the jigged bone Damascus Delica that comes clipless. Almost too pretty to carry though.
 
I used to carry my Delica4 clipless (in my right front pocket by itself; keys & change on the left side), but that was before I got one of Casey Lynch's deep-carry clips.
 
I used to but I didn't like how it would turn sideways at the bottom of my pocket and poke me in the leg. Now when I don't want my knife showing I clip it onto the waist of my pants behind my belt. Otherwise I carry a smaller folder (chaparral) clipped in my small watch pocket in my jeans.
