Thank you but I'll pass if it's the wallet.dat file.

And once you decided to pass along the wallet.dat file to others, please consider sending only the encrypted mkey alongside with the necessary data to unencrypt it with the password.
Just follow the instructions given by PowerGlove (although you'll have to use a tool to display the wallet.dat's contents in hex)

Or do you have an air-gap machine? (Wikipedia: air-gap)
If so, you can safely extract the encrypted mkey (famously called "hash") with the open-source tools suggested by others without the worry of it being malicious since it wont be able to transmit data outside the machine anyways.
