I know that XM18s come with either one of two steels, 20CV or CTS-XHP, and i know that the CTS-XHP version is a sprint run and most of them are marked. However, I'm not 100% sure about mine because it looks to be a fairly new piece that comes with flat handle screws and phillips head pocket clip screws, and it is not marked anything. Any hints?

Thanks

I got one of the very first CTS-XHP XM-18s back in February, it was unmarked. After those early pieces, all came marked on the blade. I guess it is crucial that you find out when yours originally left the farm.
