Recommendations for FFG Titanium Flippers

Spyderco Mantra or Mantra 2.

Oh, forgot this one, good call. Titanium framelock bearing flipper with two different blade shape options (I prefer the filet knife version myself, it carries tiny), full flat grind and great blade steel (CPM-M4).
 
Lionsteel TRE, though I'd recommend the ones with the G10 front scale, they tend to have better flipping action.

Another great suggestion I forgot. The TRE is FFG indeed (I prefer hollow grinds myself, but different strokes and all) and a nice little knife. I use the keychain that came with it all the time.

As far as the titanium model not flipping well, as long as you don't need the thumb disk opening to be easy, just bend some more tension into the lock bar and it will turn into a great little flipper--that's what I did with mine. Then I removed the thumb disk part and plugged it back into the neat little spot on the wood block it all came on.

That's a knife that I was sort of so so on, because of the weak detent, that became a semi-regular member of my rotation after bending in a little more lock bar tension.
 
Thanks Pelonej! That Benchmade 761 is interesting, gonna have to check that one out. My town sucks for having any good shops that sell knives, there is only a couple. But one is a Benchmade retailer so much go and see if they have one I could check out in person. Those TI Millies are awesome, I have been also debating rather to get some TI scales for one of my PM2's. Its just taking it apart and getting it back together perfect, that red locktite is a bitch.

My pleasure brother!
That 761 impressed the shit out of me! Great knife!! If you get the chance, check it out!
I tried a Ti set of scales for one of my Para 2s and wasn't crazy about them. Made the knife much heavier and like you said, it is a bitch getting it back together perfectly. I took them off and got some Shepard CC customs instead.
Much much better feel. Eric's, Shepard, scales fit PERFECTLY! It was a breeze doing the switch!
Here it is.

I recommend RGT Ti scales for the PM2 (see the green set page 1). The lanyard tube is the pain, other then that it's easy.
 
Thanks for all the awesome recommendations!! Yea I was considering either the Titanium scales from Flytanium (since they are cheaper) but have also been talking to the RGT guy and have also bought one of his clips already aswell. He says some of his TI Scales might be made in a couple weeks but all I know they are the regular stonewashed ones.
