What does the lightning bolt on the orange alox electrician mean or does it simply mean nada.  :think:

It's the symbol for electricity hence the electrician.
If I remember correctly, wait, what was I saying?

It's a typical WARNING HIGH VOLTAGE symbol and it has appeared on the solo Electrician and the new Electrician Plus Duo because of their "SHOCKING COLORS".   

Stay Safe!!

Yup. Paladin uses the lightning bolt for the logo of their Powerplay MTs (geared towards electricians) and so does SOG. (Their MT wire stripper component has a lightning bolt on it.)
This is called a Swiss Army Knife. Do you know what Switzerland is? Switzerland is a place where they don't like to fight, so they get people to do their fighting for them while they ski and eat chocolate. - Larry David

It means "warning: not insulated". :P

Not trying to be a smarta$$ but actually anodized aluminum doesn't conduct electricity. That's how, when they anodize aluminum they know it's finished. Sorry that's a bad habit of mine. Sometimes I'm too technical.

You know, I'd totally forgotten that.  Still not sure the SAK is going to be rated to 10000V though. :D

I doubt it. At that much voltage I wouldn't even use electrical pliers. Lineman tools maybe.
