I believe the "Lightning SS" indicate Stainless Steel.

Than you for the info.

FYI, that shield was only used from 87' to 89'. Doesn't make it rare or more valuable. Just good info to know.

I just really thought the shield wad different, and did not have a knife with that shield on it, so I bought the knife.Besides, you can't go wrong buying a Case knife from the 80's for $40. This lady was selling her husbands collection at this show, and needless to say, her table was busy. I was in the right place at the right time.
