A large man at 7.5 feet tall, he worked helping travelers cross a raging river safely. One day a small child asked for his service. Perched on Christopher’s shoulders, the child grew heavier and heavier as they crossed the stream. Reaching the other shore, Christopher asked him, ‘Who are you, that you placed me in such peril? It seems I was carrying the whole world on my shoulders.’ The child replied, ‘You not only carried the world, but him who made it. I am Jesus Christ, the King.’ St. Christopher's name means ‘Christ-bearer.’ He was believed to have lived in the third century during the reign of Decius. The Saint Christopher medal is one of the most popular saint medals worn; he is revered by athletes, mariners, ferrymen, travelers and as one of the Fourteen Holy Helpers.
The high-quality stainless steel used to craft this is known as 316L. The quality refers to the purity and hardness of the stainless steel; the higher the grade-number, the purer the steel, this is the highest grade given. 316L is also known as surgical steel, it is the same grade surgeons use and is gentle on sensitive skin. Stainless steel is a highly robust metal that retains its shape, will not tarnish, and is virtually impervious to wear and tear. It can easily be polished to restore the original luster after years of wear.
The rising price of steel makes this a great investment.
