We teamed up once again with Greg Thompson to optimize some of the most popular elements of the SOCP® platform for concealed carry with the 173BK Mini SOCP®. Based on feedback from Special Operations personnel, we have updated the design of the sheath clip to allow for better retention on MOLLE® webbing, pocket seams, and waistbands. The overall length of the knife allows for easier concealment while maintaining it’s effectiveness in a self-defense situation.
