Product Description
The CRKT MinimalX is a compact everyday-carry folder designed by Darriel Caston of D Rocket Design. Created with a focus on minimizing size without sacrificing functionality, the MinimalX combines a distinctive modified tanto blade with a compact frame and precision opening system.
The 2.19-inch modified tanto blade is made from 12C27 Sandvik stainless steel and features a plain cutting edge. The compact blade provides a useful combination of cutting performance and a strong tanto-style tip, while the stonewashed finish gives the knife a clean, rugged appearance.
The MinimalX uses CRKT’s IKBS (Ikoma Korth Bearing System) for smooth blade deployment. Its compact 3.12-inch closed length and lightweight 2.6-ounce construction make it particularly well suited for everyday carry.
With an overall length of just 5.30 inches, the MinimalX packs a lot of design and engineering into a remarkably small footprint. Its distinctive styling also reflects its connection to the world of aerospace and exploration—the design was originally commissioned to commemorate a SpaceX launch.

Knife-Depot Take
The CRKT MinimalX is a fascinating little folder for anyone who appreciates compact engineering and unconventional design. At just 2.6 ounces, it is remarkably light, while the modified tanto blade gives it a distinctive profile and the IKBS system provides smooth operation. The SpaceX connection adds another interesting piece of history to a knife that’s already unusual in its design.
