The all ti TRE is a heck of a knife, but I think I'd personally prefer it if the inside of the handles weren't milled.
I'm not complaining that it's too light, just think it would be nice with that little extra weight.
I wonder if they'd make me a custom one... :D

And by the way, this is possibly the prettiest damascus I've seen.

 
Weight is my only concern with the TRE too. I just don't like featherweight knives. Love everything else about it though.
 
I like the fact that they got rid of some unnecessary weight, but I wish they offered it with a longer blade and some S-125 steel.
 
Slightly bigger version, slightly bigger flipper tab, and another K390 steel run with those differences!!
 
I like these just the way they are. Replaced a couple spydies for lightweight carry knife in my rotation. I like the heat treat, I feel it was a great choice of steel for that style of knife.

I love the lightness of the TRE Titanium. I was used to much heavier knives and this was a very pleasant surprise. The high quality make and feel of the knife does not make me worry about breaking it at all despite the lightness (unlike my William Henry knife which, while also well made, makes me feel like I will snap it in half just holding it).

My only issue (apart from the flipper not being that great) is the edges are sharp and I feel could have been ground down/rounded a bit so it doesn't bite into my hands.
 
I like the weight of the knife just fine. However the grind of the blade... Stock is too thick for my taste, and wayyyyy to thick behind the edge. M390 is super strong. I want slicey dicey!
