The SR-1's come in either Titanium or Aluminum. I'm trying to decide which one to get.

-- SR-1 --
Handle: Titanium
Street Price: $200 more than SR-1A
Weight: 6.8 oz
Steel: Sleipner 60-61 HRC
Container: Wooden display case

-- SR-1A --
Handle: Aluminum
Street Price: $200 less than SR-1
Weight: 5.6 oz
Steel: D2
Container: Plain cardboard box

And for good measure, here are the stats of the Lionspy

-- Lionspy --
Handle: G10 / Titanium
Street PRice: Priced between SR-1 and SR-1A
Weight: 5.9 oz
Steel: Elmax
Container: Spyderco box and soft shell case


What other differences are there? What advantages does a titanium handle have over aluminum? Thanks
