WHD 14" x 6.5" Steel Snare, Black

More details:

The snare drum is possibly the most vital part of the drummers arsenal, and should not be underestimated.......

Steel is loud, yet sensitive and responsive, giving a larger dynamic range. The most notable sound characteristic of steel drum shells is their bright tone, long sustain and penetrating rim shot sound. As well as the attractively finished steel shell, the snare also features a heavy duty snare strainer, and tunes well at both tight and slack tensions.

If rim shots are a big part of your playing style, or you just need your snare to cut through loud music and have a greater dynamic range, you should try a steel-shelled snare drum, and at this price, it would seem silly not to.
