The Benchmade SOCP Dagger was designed by Greg Thompson, the creator of the Special Operation Combatives Program. Basically, the head instructor of hand to hand combat for US Special Forces. It was designed as a military neck knife to "deal with" grappling situations in military hand to hand combat.

The knife is 7.25 inches in total length, blade is 3.25 inches in length, but the sharpened double-edge is only the last 1.3 inches. The knife weighs only 2.2 ounces and the sheath weighs 1 ounce. The steel is 440C steel (thickness is 4.7mm), it has a convex grind, and the knife features a pommel ring. The sheath covers the entire knife except the ring. Price was $57 on sale.
