			When i contacted strider this is the message they sent back telling me about the knife
 "The knife is a product Strider KNives Manufactures directly for Department of Defense clients.
 It is manufactured from a very special alloy of Copper Beryllium.
 This alloy is employed where NON-SPARKING requirements are at hand.
 We have been making this product which is our design, for over 10 years now and the product received a National Stock Number several years ago.
 It is still being ordered, made and shipped to units today."
