The article by Randall Chaney reviews the Benchmade SOCP dagger, which is meticulously designed for use in high-risk environments by professionals, such as military units and federal law enforcement. The dagger, founded by Greg Thompson through the Special Operations Combatives Program (SOCP), was developed for hand-to-hand combat when armor is worn. The knife itself is lightweight yet strong, built for confidence in close quarters combat without comprising accessibility for transitioning to firearms.
The SOCP program has an extensive history, being the first combatives program officially adopted by U.S. Army Special Forces and further adopted by Army Rangers, Naval Special Warfare SEALs, Marine Recon, and various federal and local law enforcement agencies since its 2010 introduction. Designed as both a combative and transitional tool, the Benchmade SOCP dagger complements the operator’s gear by allowing for quick transitions between the knife and firearms. Its streamlined design ensures retention in tactical vests and body armors via MOLLE or PALS webbing.
The minimalist Benchmade SOCP dagger is crafted from 440C stainless steel, featuring an ergonomic handle without scales, allowing for maximum grip reliability with gloved hands. Equipped with a generous ring for secure retention, the knife is lauded for its task-specific design that enables swift deployment. Also, the Benchmade trainer provides a safe practice alternative for honing skills in realistic scenarios, promoting muscle memory without compromising safety.
