I've been looking at a new knife to EDC and found the Benchmade SOCP Spear Point.

What I like about it:
>Highly Concealable
>Simple fixed blade
>I have a hard on for Benchmade
>A good backup weapon if it really comes down to it

What I don't like:
>Might be tacticool for normal usage
>probably would get some strange looks/comments for pulling it out around people because it's not a fudd trapper.

Anyone own one and want to share their opinions?

Get something normal OP
I love benchmade but that thing is straight up cringe.

Yeah that's what's keeping me from buying it. It's mall ninja tier.

Friend had one and the it sucked and was more dangerous to the user and those around him when used for anything other than stabbing something with it gripped properly

Ignore my derpy first sentence, but it was not really good for edc.

>>34369286
Thanks for the replies. You guys kind of made me do a reality check. I'll look for something else.

Unless you're at high risk of having to fight off a gun grab or clear a lot of buildings for a living I'd pass on it honestly. It's a neat peace of kit, but not really worth the price or worth the hassle of appendix carrying around every day.

Don't know why people thinks it's "cringe" or "mall ninja." It is a great blade for every day carry use. It is very light and I just clip it into the waist band of my athletic shorts in the summer. I hardly even notice that it's there. Go for it dude, you won't regret it.

I would get a good folder.
Your pic make great folders.

And they don't look mallninja, won't scare noguns people and finally will probably be more useful for slicing shit like tape, cardboard or whatever else you need in an EDC.

Also folders with a glass breaker and seat belt cutter are infinitely superior to your pic.

we were issued those, i suppose they work for the intended function, that is, grab it quickly and stab someone with it.

At anything else they're pretty much terrible, and more than one guy in our platoon managed to break the tip without putting any effort with it.

TL;DR if you're gonna use it once, for that time when stabbing someone could save your life, go for it i guess. if you actually need a knife, buy a knife instead.

>"I'm in the military and we abuse our shit for no reason because we are fucking dumb
>"some dumbass used the blade for a purpose it was not designed for and broke the tip"
It is not a fucking utility blade, it is a self defense tool

So exactly what i wrote, but you just had to be a tough guy, huh
