Benchmade – 185BK – SOCP Fixed Blade – Fixed Blade Knife – CPM 3V Coated D/E – G10 – Black

Description

The Benchmade 185BK SOCP Fixed Blade is a purpose-driven, tactical knife designed in partnership with Greg Thompson—creator of the Special Operations Combatives Program. Engineered for close-quarters combat, quick access, and rugged utility, the 185BK version features a non-serrated blade for users who prefer a sleek, continuous edge.

The 3.22″ dagger-style blade is crafted from CPM-3V steel, a high-performance tool steel known for its exceptional toughness and edge retention. Finished with a non-reflective black Cerakote coating, the blade resists corrosion while maintaining a stealthy, low-profile appearance. With its double-edge geometry, the 185BK excels in thrusting, slashing, and controlled detail work under pressure.

Its lightweight handle is formed from CF-Elite—a carbon-fiber reinforced nylon that delivers the strength of metal with the weight savings of polymer. Ergonomic contours and aggressive jimping support secure grip in a variety of tactical holds, while the signature finger ring provides fast retention, draw reliability, and seamless transitions between carry positions. The design allows for a positive grip even with gloves, wet hands, or rapid movement.

The 185BK includes a molded Boltaron sheath with an adjustable, discrete carry clip for horizontal, vertical, or inverted mounting. The slim profile, reliable sheath retention, and quick-access draw make it ideal for concealed carry, plate carriers, or EDC belt setups. Built for professionals, but trusted by serious civilians, the 185BK is a modern combative tool that’s as practical as it is lethal.
