SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Benchmade SOCP 185BK Fixed Blade Knife is a robust tactical tool crafted for high-performance utility and versatility. Designed with the discerning user in mind, this knife incorporates premium materials and thoughtful design features that make it an ideal choice for professionals and tactical enthusiasts alike. The SOCP (Special Operations Combatives Program) line is known for its reliability in intense environments, and the 185BK model upholds that legacy with durability and efficiency.
At the heart of this fixed blade is a 7.11-inch CPM-3V tool steel dagger blade, a choice material for tasks requiring superior strength and edge retention. With a Rockwell hardness that resists chipping and wear, CPM-3V is engineered to handle heavy-duty use. The blade is finished in a Cobalt Black Cerakote, which not only provides a sleek appearance but also protects the steel from corrosion and reduces glare, enhancing the knife’s stealth in tactical situations. The double-edged design is effective for both piercing and slicing, making it versatile for a range of applications, from fieldwork to self-defense.
The SOCP’s handle is crafted from textured G-10 in a matching black color, designed to provide a secure, non-slip grip even in wet or gloved hands. The handle features weight-reducing cutouts, which help minimize overall weight without compromising structural integrity. At 5.78 ounces, this knife is lightweight enough to carry comfortably without sacrificing performance. The handle also includes a lanyard hole, adding versatility for secure attachments or lashing to gear.
Benchmade has equipped the SOCP 185BK with a MOLLE-compatible molded plastic sheath, ensuring that it’s always within reach and securely stowed when not in use. The sheath is designed for quick and smooth deployment, essential in high-stress scenarios where speed is critical. Compatible with MOLLE webbing, the sheath can be easily attached to tactical vests, belts, or packs, making it suitable for military, law enforcement, and survival applications.
With an overall length of 11.74 inches, the Benchmade SOCP 185BK Fixed Blade Knife provides the reach and capability needed for serious tasks while maintaining a manageable and balanced profile.
