TheBenchmade 176T SOCP Dagger is a skeletonized training knife designed with input from the creator of the S.O.C.P program, a combat system used by US Army special units.
Simple and rugged
TheBenchmade 176T is a training dagger made from a single piece of 440C stainless steel. The bright red color scheme makes it easy to quickly distinguish from the "combat" version.
Theknife is designed for training and learning hand-to-hand combat, so the blade has no derived cutting edge, and the hilt has been gently rounded. Such functionality allows for realistic training with a high level of safety.
Ergonomic handle
Transverse cutters have been made on the narrow handle and at the base of the blade to improve the knife's grip. The grip has anatomical cutouts for the fingers, so the knife does not slip even from a sweaty hand.
On the back of the handle there is a distinctive ring, making it easier to retrieve the knife from the sheath, allowing for an instant change of grip and hammer blows.
Polymer sheath
For safe carrying of the tool, there is a polymer sheath with a clip, compatible with the MOLLE system, so it can be attached to vests, belts and military panels.
TheBenchmade 176T SOCP Dagger is a sturdy training tool that can also be used as a kubotan for self-defense.
