Notes

Purpose-built, and honest about it.

The SOCP — Special Operations Combatives Program — is the rare modern Benchmade that hides nothing. A double-edged dagger ground from 440C, a skeletonized handle sized to ride flat under a plate carrier, and a deep-carry sheath that disappears into MOLLE. There is no clip-point compromise here and no folding mechanism to baby. It is one piece of steel built to do one thing.

It sits in the collection as the counterweight to the customs: where Hawk performs and Chris Reeve refines, the SOCP simply commits. Inspected, complete with its injection-molded sheath, and Wolf Certified.
