I would also add the Tops Ice Dagger in the mix as it just debuted at Shot Show.

Benchmade has a trainer for theirs IIRC which is a nice plus. Not sure about the others.

Is this something us Marylanders can carry?

Yes
But fixed blades must be open carried.
That Tops is sweet, I don't get the other two

Not sure how much more weight with the Tops ICE but I do like the thicker blade tip as I would think the priority of these type of last ditch knives would be piercing blades first. Just my thought.

Aren't double edged blades illegal in Maryland?
I call double edged fixed blades, dirks. Not sure there's a legal definition, but yes, dirks are specifically listed as weapons. So generally illegal, unless you have a permit to carry a gun. Being exempt from the weapons portion of the law alone is worth going through the hassle.
Should also mention- I don't think the GITFO is double bladed, just a false edge like I know the Benchmade is. The TOPS version appears to be double edged.

For something less "tactical" looking, there's the classic bird and trout knife which looks comparable.
Here's Cold Steel's version which looks a little bigger than most bird and trout knives. Sheath looks pretty good with enough holes to lace them onto a pack or something.

Only if concealed. No prohibition against owning or open carry.
FYI, SOCP is on sale at Botach today.
