Benchmade SOCP 

The Benchmade SOCP skeletonized dagger delivers tactical self-defense while maintaining full dexterity, featuring a 3.22" flat-ground 440C stainless steel blade with non-reflective black coating. Weighing just 2.12 ounces, this minimalist tool integrates seamlessly into gear via its specialized MOLLE-compatible injection-molded sheath, providing professionals with reliable, low-profile protection when quick access and performance matter most. The dagger design excels in close-quarter situations where its symmetrical point allows for effective penetration regardless of grip orientation, giving users a decisive advantage when traditional folding knives might be too slow to deploy.

    Perfect fit

    Posted by Steven Irvin on 29th Dec 2024

    I really love this knife! It pairs perfectly with my waste pouch EDC carry bag, and I use it as a chest rig. Having a quick-access blade is super important to me, and this one definitely gets the job done. Benchmade has such a great reputation for quality while being budget-friendly, and they really hit the mark with this one. While I’m sure it’s useful on its own, the design fits so well with the pack that it made my decision easier than choosing from my hundred other knives I could have just used. Great job on this one! Thanks REC!

    Excellent design - consider tradeoffs between full size and mini

    Posted by Brian Cotten on 10th Oct 2024

    I bought the "mini" version first and loved the sheath retention and concealability. On this model you trade off some of that sheath retention grip for a longer blade. I still love it. I think it really depends where you want to carry it. IWB go with the mini. If you want a bigger blade for your purposes, go with the full size. Now note - the retention is not bad. It's still solid! The mini just had such insane retention and ease of deployment. You can swing that thing around as hard as possible and it won't come out of the sheath. The clip is still great, sheath is still great. It's really up to how you want to use and carry it. I have both for a reason. Really useful and ergonomic tools
