    I don't carry a knife at work but am thinking about a launch 4 to carry in my 5th change pocket. Figure it's small enough for what I would need and would be out of the way. Other than probably forgetting it in my jeans and washing it, is it worth having for the money? I could always carry a multi tool in a belt pouch but just don't need all that. Just looking for something sharp that's out of the way and the small change pocket seems the way to go.

    See Post #2.

    This mirrors my experience as well.

    Neat little knife. The pocket clip on mine doesn't retain super well. I once found it missing. Then my young son found it under something on the living room floor.

    If I had to do it over again, I'd pick one of the other micro-autos over the Launch 4, but that's hindsight - as the 4 came out way before the others.

    Also, and it wasn't my 4, but I've had at least 1 other Launch open up "all by itself" in my pocket. I wish the buttons were a little more protected.

    My daughter has a Teal Launch 4, she loves it.

    Got her a matching Launch 8 for Christmas.

    Love the launch knives, I have a 1, two 3’s, and a 13.

    There are after market pocket clips on eBay that allow for deeper, more reliable pocket carry. I have one on the way for my 8
