SPD X-11

$ 59.00
Overview
The Special Projects Division X-11 is a precision made, titanium handled, compact cutting tool using a common and replaceable no. 11 utility blade. A unique, unibody design which is smaller in width than a AAA battery and about as long as your pinky finger. This small but mighty cutting tool is designed to be barely felt on your keychain, in your pocket, or stored in a pocket emergency kit or stash tube.

Small but
Mighty

Ths SPD X-11 is a very compact, yet highly capable cutting tool. Barely over 8 grams in weight, smaller in diameter than a AAA battery and about as long as your pinky finger. 

Titanium EDC

At PDW, we have a strong affinity for titanium billet and machining them into useful, everyday carry tools and objects. The SPD X-11 is a precision made tool to EDC. #hikebikecampshootridedive

Advanced, Utility
Design

Using the latest fabrication techniques, we were able to construct the handle out of a solid piece of titanium billet, creating a unibody cutting tool. Despite it's very compact size, smart details characterize the design which features four preset blade positions and carefully considered ergonomics.

Best
Grade

We use the best grade in materials in the making of our X-11. From 6AL-4V grade-5 titanium billet, to the brightest strontium aluminate cabochon button inlay, PDW is uncompromising in quality of make. The practical use of the replaceable, readily available no.11 utility blades was a smart decision to have an off the shelf supply of razor sharp blades at your disposal. 

A to
Z

As with just about all of our EDC tools and items, we include a presentation box, that is simple, yet elegant and practical. Our tin boxes are completely reusable for storing odds and ends, fire making supplies, a DIY sewing kit and more.

Special
Projects
Division

Making the X-11 literally required some fresh angles in fabrication methods. It was a challenging and ultimately satisfying exercise to achieve a unibody construction that we were after, as well as the whole process to miniaturize the entire cutting tool was befitting of our SPD classification.

A very handy edc product but …

I was working using the spd x-11 to cut through duct tape and the screw came lose on the body and I nearly lost all of the small components.. I did in fact lose one of the springs .. would be handy if you could tell me what size spring it is so I can get a replacement.

Tiny cool tool with an unavoidable flaw?

This thing is so cool. It's teeny tiny and exactly what I wanted for something I can carry around to open packages and such. The only problem I have with it is that the slider can get stuck if you're not holding it completely at the front (which has a tiny little finger grip). The underside is exposed so that you can change blades (and I think this is the only way to accomplish this on something this small...) but it also easily hits your fingers when you try to slide it open and makes it not as smooth/satisfying of a process as it could be. That's a minor complaint, and like I said, probably not avoidable. Other than that it's well made and really cool.

Great little Keychain edc

Love the thing and it's super handy. Only downside is the xacto z blades don't fit on it. Other than that it's awesome.

Hi John, thanks for the review. We actually designed the X-11 around the Xacto brand No. 11 blades, but did not fit the tool for the 'Z'- type blade. While similar, the 'Z'- type is apparently slightly different than the more common stanard No. 11 blade profile. We've made a note of this and will see if we can come up with a blade seat that fits both for any potential future production runs.
