    Comfortable for Concealment & Ergonomic

    Posted by Brian Cotten on 10th Oct 2024

    I like the mini SOCP better than the full size. Easy and comfortable to conceal iwb, comes with a leather pad to make it a bit more comfortable there. Sheath retention is fantastic. It's useful, study and lightweight. The clip is good too. You can basically carry this no matter what you are wearing. Love it.

    A good hideaway

    Posted by Scott on 13th Apr 2020

    The Mini-SOCP dagger is a good blade for carrying discreetly and without getting in the way. The clip on the sheath grips my pants well, so I am able to pocket carry it as I would carry a normal folding knife. I did not find it to be the most comfortable for carry inside my waistband, but pocket carry is excellent. The grip is not the most comfortable, but that is because this is meant to be minimalist, weighing little, and fitting almost anywhere. The tip is sharp enough, but the blade itself is not the sharpest. The small blade with two edges imposes limitations on sharpness. Even after going at it with my sharpening stones, it's still not particularly sharp. It's not dull, but it will never be a very sharp blade. But I expected it would not be very sharp from the start, just because of how it's designed. Another advantage of this version is that by being so short, it is carryable in most any place that imposes length restrictions on knives.
