So I was wondering if the very early gen 4 XMs that do not have any markings ( no laser etched logo or blade steel and no stamp either) are generally Duratech 20cv like the gen 3s or if they are just unmarked s35vn? I'm opening this up to anyone who thinks they might know but perhaps I should just send a pm to Rob and get a definitive ( if such a thing is actually possible) answer.
 
I believe the general rule is "unmarked are most likely Duratech 20CV" applies here.
 
^ yup my sterile slicer is an early gen 4 and it is 20CV. I remember asking this same question back when I got it and the answer was exactly what N2K said. :)
 
It's also a bit reassuring that there are no contradictory posts. Information like this posted in forums, this one is no exception, tends to be challenged if inaccurate/or thought to be.
