Titanium (Ti) is
a chemical element that is strong, light weight and corrosion resistant.
These properties make titanium an ideal material for knife making. Titanium
comes in several different grades. The highest grades are used for making
knife blades.
Titanium is
extracted from a particular black ore or sand found in many regions around
the world. Although titanium has superior knife making qualities, it can be
harder to work with and machine than traditional steels. Modern technologies
are solving these problems and allowing titanium to become a leading
material in the knife making industry.
