Anodized Titanium Handles

[jayharley]

I am considering purchasing a folder with an anodized titanium handle. It is one of the new Camillus CUDA MAXX 5.5. I have heard pros and cons about the wear and tear of the andodized finishes used on titanium. I have heard many reports about how easy this type of finish is to scratch etc. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

It looks from pictures like Camillus is using a bead blasted finish rather than brushed. The bead blasted/anodized knives have been pretty durable (cosmetically) for me. Certainly no worse than a Sebenza or such.
