I've read a lot of threads recently about people using pocket slips to carry their traditional pocket knives to protect them from keys, change, etc. I've carried a 503 for years loose in my pocket with keys, change, and whatever else I may have in there. Yes the knife does get a little beat up and scratched up, but it's never affected the function of the knife. What do y'all think? Do y'all carry your user traditionals in slips or just throw them in your pocket with keys, change, etc. and let them develop a little "character?"
