Those are hand-struck after hardening. It is not as simple as it might seem. 
I would not usually rate Strider a "value" but I think you get a very high quality knife and the price is fair if not a bargain. However, the last two I bought, SMF and SnG in S110V, were actually almost custom quality and I would rate them a genuine bargain. :thumbup:

That double tap on Strider tang stamp seems to happen often but it sure doesn't have any effect on the knife. I've seen a few examples of that recently.
Regardless of that or any other derog toward Strider, I think their knives rock and I plan to have more than the one I have now. Granted, I got my SMF CC SW from another fine BF member ina trade so I knew I was getting a good one but I fully plan on buying a brand new Strider soon as well. Not sure whch one yet but I promise I will have another.
Yes, I think they cost too much but I doubt Strider will lower the price just for me so if I want one, I have to pony up
