My Titanium supplier sent me a couple pieces of 15-5 stainless by mistake. Is there any use for this material in knife making? Bolsters, liners, fittings, guards? How will the color match with other stainless materials such as s30v and s35vn? It seems to contain chromium, nickel, and copper, but no carbon. I would suspect the edge holding ability would be rather poor.
I think I already know the answer, but would appreciate a few opinions to be certain.
