What would be the advantage of titanium in cutlery? Weight? Color?

Miracle blade? That's sooooooooo 10 years ago. It's all about the Ronco cutlery set now.

Titanium actually sucks for keeping an edge because it's low density. If you want a long-lasting edge, high density steel is best.

Weight and novelty. A lot of hiking stores sell lightweight Ti cutlery.

Probably not. I need the feel of the weight of the knife to make proper cuts. I could care less about the strength to weight ratio
