Intrepid Steel Type?

Guess I'll post one of the early real questions for this forum.
As far as I've been able to find out from my usual sources, the Intrepid is listed as having a "400-series" stainless steel. I'm wondering if there's an answer that's a bit less, um, vague, as to the construction of this knife. It looks like a great production rendition of Carson's custom work, and I'm wondering what actual type of steel is used for it.
Thanks.

PS. Cobalt, how the heck did you read my mind on this one? I just posted this and as the screen reloaded, there was your post. Weird!

The first sign of poor craftsmanship is wrinkles in the duct tape.

The steel is our 420HC. Our catalog is a little vauge.

Not much feedback yet on the reverse serrations. We did have one navy buyer request theirs with our standard serration instead.
