Where to carry my CRKT Kasper

Just got a CRKT Kasper (under $40 from MJS Knives) and I'm *VERY* impressed. I usually carry a BM 710 but the CRKT is definitely going to see some pocket time. Thing is, I can't figure out the safest/smartest way to put it in my pocket (I'm a righty). The BM 710 is tip-up and naturally goes perfectly in my right front pocket with the blade against the side of the pocket, as it should be. It's my understanding that with linerlocks it's even more important to keep the blade against the outside edge of your pocket so it can't bump (and stay) open. The CRKT, though, is tip-down and, when clipped inside my right front pocket, the blade spine faces my...well, let's hope it doesn't bump open! I suppose I could carry it in my back right pocket, but that's not my usual place.
So, CRKT Kasper owners, what do you do? (Non-owners note, the clip is not reversible.)
While I'm at it, what have you all done to improve the slightly slippery grip? Can I take sandpaper to the Zytel?

Thanks,

Shmackey

I carry my KFF in the front right pocket of my pants, or inside waistband. I have not had any blade-opening problems to date, and I hope it stays like that. I´m more afraid of autos, I think a well-built linerlock is quite safe. BTW, I like the grip, I will probably not change it.

Hi!

Try some skateboard tape, snug fitting and non-slip, i got it on the clip on my KFF and it helps a lot.
Maybe just a few strips will be enough? or maybe have it beadblasted??
