Good question... it's the same material as every other US made MTD, though what that is isn't readily made information.
I don't think it's meant to be a secret or special, just not common knowledge. A call to Team Tobias or perhaps an inquiry in The Official MTD USA Thread should get you the answer.

 

Excellent point (which I knew and neglected to consider), thank you.

 

This one is also up on Reverb now should anyone interested need more payment options.
It's priced a bit more though as to offset their seller's fees.
