Hey all, I recently picked up a Strider SNG CC from the exchange. There is no identifier on the blade as to the steel type. Any idea of what it would be?

Thanks guys.

I have a few others. All are marked. Was there a certain time period they were not marked or just random?
 
oh, and Z wear...I believe....

I never heard of unmarked blades always being s30v....Maybe the masses are correct. Or maybe strider forgot to mark some blades and to make life easy, they say its s30v...tough to trust them

They have used most of the current metals on their knives , but they should be marked as such-but mistakes happen. There isn't much of a pattern to Strider stamping, but S30V was the standard for years and they were often(at least) not marked, some new are (and maybe some old were marked also). Seems like certain stamping goes with certain configurations.
S30V being the ones where there is no metal type is stamped is fairly well known.
