How do you carry your Sebenza 21 small?

So I'm happy to have my new Sebenza 21 small Insingo, but I am not sure where to carry it. I want to EDC, but I can't find a place.

My right pocket is my iPhone pocket -- nothing else goes in there as to not scratch the device. Left pocket is change and keys. If I clip it in the left pocket, it would seem to stay clear of keys and change most of the time, but when I reach in there, my wedding ring scrapes it. The back pocket (right, no wallet) could work, but it's awkward to get it clipped without the top rim of the pocket folding over, making a thick clip rim.

Surely I don't want to just drop it down in my change pocket with keys and such. Hmmm.

I keep mine in pouch in right side along with keys and e-cig.

phone, like you, is solo in left.

the leather pouch is my choice of carry, protects knife from lint and scuffs.

im so grateful these knives come with a leather pouch.
 
My smalls ride in the CRK sheath, unless its a plain or micarta. All in my right pocket. My keys go in my right pocket too, and my phone, which has a slim case and screen protector, goes in my left pocket. Clip the knife to your pocket and you are good to go if you do to your phone what I just mentioned.
 
Phone left pocket, sebenza insingo clipped in right pocket, change in right pocket. Keys on the beltloop with a caribiner.

Inlay: knife in pouch, pouch in right pocket
Plain: clipped to pants either right or left (depends on which model I have both)

What ever pocket the knife is in, pouch or no, the keys still go in the other one
 
I have a similar setup to you OP for EDC.
Right front - phone
Left front - keys,change
Back right - small seb

For me it doesn't cause my pant pockets to fold over.
 
I keep it clipped to my front right pocket with my keys and a small multitool/victorinox loose in the pocket. If you're afraid of your phone getting scratched, why not get a case for it?
 
It will be fine clipped to the same pocket as the phone is in. I do and don't have any problems with it and I carry the larges
 
I carry my Mnandis and Smalls in my little extra pocket of my jeans (anyone know what that thing is called?) Fits perfectly, and acts as a sheath since nothing else can go in that pocket.
 
There are different ways.
Plain with cilp: inside the waistband.
No clip: in a small slip pouch in right front pocket.

You could switch the ring to the right hand as common in Europe.

I've always carried my knife clipped on my right pocket.
I've always called the extra pocket on my jeans, the 5th pocket.
I loved carrying my victorinox cadet in there.
Until it fell out and I lost it.
I've been toying with the idea of the leather pouch. Looks awesome.
 
Keys, change, left front
Knife, wallet (slim front pocket wallet) right front
Phone, usually left rear or left in car or on desk. I don't need it everywhere I walk around.

Knife goes with wallet usually weather it's clipped or not. I carry my small both ways depending on pants I'm wearing and what holster I'm using that day.
 
Clipped to my right front pocket! Knife inside, clip out.
Never had any problems woth my phone, which is also carried right front pocket!!
 
I usually carry my micarta and plain clipless and loose in my pocket. My Snakewood stays on the pouch without the clip.
 
I carry my small micarta Insingo clipless with no sheath in my right pocket with my smartphone. The phone has a case, so it really doesn't take too much damage. The screen has some scratches from my knives, but whatever.

I recently picked up a couple smalls with inlays that have the polished Ti and have going back and forth as to whether I want to use the leather sheath or just drop them into my pocket. I don't want them to get all scratched up, but I feel like the sheath undermines the one-handed functionality of the knife. You have to pull it out, then remove the sheath with your other hand before you can open the knife. I'm torn.
 
I always keep items that could scratch my knife away from it. I typically carry my small Sebenza in either my right front pocket or my right back pocket. My keys are on a caribiner and clipped to a belt loop on my left side. My phone sits in my left front pocket. My flashlight will be in whatever vacant pocket I have on my right side. A place for everything. :)
 
Wallet in right with my larger blade 3.5+ then phone in left with smaller EDC knife. My keys usually are in my left but sometimes go in the right. That is wearing standard pants. 5.11 pants expand your options a lot more. I do not carry loose change so not a problem, it weighs a lot and is annoying.
