Greetings,
I have a lot (hundreds of feet) of 1/8" and 1/16" Titanium Rods. My first impression was to use them as pins in full tang knives. Not recommended!

Any thoughts where Titanium Rods may be of use in knife making?

I use 1/8 Ti pin stock quite often with no issues. It gives a different, almost "softer" look than steel.

What grade Titanium is it? It could be used to pin titanium bolsters of the same grade, if you so choose.
