Benchmade SOCP Fixed Blade Trainer 185T – Train Like You Carry
Proper preparation is key to effective use of any defensive system. That is the mission of the Benchmade SOCP Fixed Blade Trainer 185T, built to perfectly mimic the weight, balance, and feel of its edged counterpart, the 185 SOCP Fixed Blade. The bright red 440C training blade is unsharpened for safe partner drills, and the peel-ply G10 handle gives you the same grip texture you would feel on the live knife.
If you carry a SOCP fixed blade, training with the Benchmade SOCP Fixed Blade Trainer 185T means your draws, retention work, and combatives practice transfer one-to-one to the real thing.
