Benchmade SOCP 176 Tactical Dagger 176BK with Black 440C Handle

Benchmade's unwavering commitment to crafting the world's finest knives dates back to 1988 when the company first set out on this mission. Though Benchmade has since expanded its offerings to include tools for elite tactical operators, first responders, and collectors, its core goal remains unchanged: to produce the best knives available.

Designed for tactical use, the 176 SOCP skeletonized dagger is the optimal self-defense tool, allowing the user to maintain dexterity and manipulate other objects without having to put down the knife. The specialized sheath integrates seamlessly with gear and webbing while maintaining a low profile. The SOCP Combo includes both the SOCP knife and a red trainer.

Benchmade's SOCP Dagger and SOCP Spear-Point knives are MOLLE compatible, feature lanyard holes, and come with a black or sand injection-molded sheath that is also MOLLE compatible (malice clip not included). Crafted with 440C high-carbon stainless steel, the blade offers a balance of hardness and rust resistance, taking a fine edge that is relatively easy to re-sharpen.

The 176 SOCP's single-piece dagger design incorporates a finger ring at the end, enabling the user to maintain dexterity and handle other objects without relinquishing the knife. Its lightweight construction and specialized, low-profile sheath ensure the knife is always readily available when needed. The dagger blade style excels at puncturing, making it the optimal blade shape for self-defense.

Benchmade's commitment to quality is evident in the precision machining and hand-assembled designs produced at their factory in Oregon City, Oregon. The company's LifeSharp services include cleaning, oiling, adjustments, and re-sharpening, underscoring their "Yours, For Life" pledge.

When Benchmade says their knives are "Yours, For Life," they mean it. The brand sets the bar for premium, high-quality products, combining advanced manufacturing techniques with meticulous hand-craftsmanship to deliver exceptional performance and longevity. Whether you're an elite tactical operator, first responder, or passionate collector, Benchmade's unwavering dedication to craftsmanship ensures you receive the best knife the world has to offer.
