So, my Zero Tolerance 0801 should come in tomorrow or Saturday and then I'll post a picture of all of my full titanium handle (both sides) folders. Most are also titanium frame locks (with some with steel insert at the contact point) but not all. From what I've seen in this thread I'll be on the same plane. Here's my list:

  1. Benchmade 635 Mini-Skirmish
  2. Benchmade 790 Sabrosa
  3. Blackwater Aculus
  4. Boker Plus CLB Subcom 42
  5. Boker Plus Manaro Bullseye Grip
  6. Buck Mayo TNT Titanium S30V BOS
  7. Camillus Cuda Dominator Tanto
  8. Chris Reeve Small Sebenza 21 Insingo
  9. Cold Steel 26S Ti-Lite Titanium
  10. CRKT K455TXP Ken Onion Eros
  11. CRKT M16-01T Titanium
  12. Kershaw Junkyard Dog II 1725SG2
  13. Kershaw Speedform 3500
  14. Kershaw Tyrade 1850
  15. LionSteel SR1 Ti
  16. LionSteel SR2 Ti
  17. LionSteel TS1 TiSpine
  18. Protech TR-3 Manual Integrity
  19. Spyderco Chaparral 2 C152TIP
  20. Spyderco Military Titanium C36TI
  21. Spyderco Native 5 Fluted Titanium C41TIFP5
  22. Zero Tolerance 0600
  23. Zero Tolerance 0801
 
Couple that I'm lusting after:

  1. Wilson Combat Eagle (Les George)
  2. Kershaw Volt 3600

Edited to Add: Eagle in Flight!

I'm not a huge fan of all-Ti knives cos I find them a bit slick to handle, but I made an exception for this Marty Young Ursus framelock cos it was so nice...





I really liked the 'Mayo holes'. They add visual interest and traction:



Its a great size and weight for EDC... not too big, not too small and it carries very flat.

Different producers have approached this issue in varying ways successfully based on the individual using the folder. Various texturing, finishes, patterns, geometric holes, inserts on the grip and so forth. Texturing works great in most cases plus the fact that most titanium finishes are gritty to begin with. Personally, texturing works great for me. However, personally the best I've found thus far is the smooth but grippy titanium finish on my ProTech TR-3 Manual Integrity!
 
Can I see the other side of your sebenza? Just curious.

In case you're wondering, I did flip the screws around. I saw someone do it here, and thought it just looked cleaner that way.
