How much of this is hardware solutions/failures to a software issue? IIRC, the SOCP dagger was the hardware that was optimized to go along with Greg Thompson's combatives program for doorkickers. Is at least part of the problem that troopers are sticking this, or even more accessible knives to their upper centerline, without any training on real close range grappling?
Not intended as a knock on anyone, in this thread or on the streets, just food for thought.
