Been carrying my new elite auto for several days now and I think it is an awesome knife. Problem is getting it out of my pocket. It sets real low in the pocket and when I reach for it my thumb is automatically on the push button. I finally learned to overcome this problem by moving my thumb forward very deliberately. Now the major problem is when I pull it out of my pocket the sharp corner on the back of my blade catches on my jeans. Wore my pocket out in 2 days almost. Does anyone know the trick for getting it out smooth and quick? Thanks, Roger
 
You must be carrying your knife in the front of your pocket. Try pushing it all the way towards the back of you pocket. I've been carrying my SE auto for months and haven't had any problems yet. I wouldn't be so worried about having your thumb on the firing button either. That's what the raised portion around the button is for and automatically having your thumb were it needs to be just saves time. This is the first auto that I've had that never, I say again, NEVER fires in my pocket on accident.

Hope this helps,
Anthony
