Just titanium... no CF, no micarta, no G10

In the spirit of other themed omnibus threads, I thought it'd be fun to have one for full titanium knives -- folders with Ti/Ti scales/handles. (There are lots of great knives out there which feature Ti, but to keep things on-theme Ti/other, Ti liners with other scales, etc. are off-topic.)

I ran a search and didn't see one, and although Ti/Ti knives seem less "knife of the moment" now than they did a few years back, there are still tons of them out there and many are mainstays in their respective companies' line-ups. That means lots of great options for folks -- like me -- who enjoy Ti/Ti knives and want to add more to their collections. :)

It's taken me a while to find full Ti knives that I like, but at the moment I have these three: the Drop (Massdrop) Keen, ZT 0450, and Kizer Feist -- medium, "smaller medium," and small. :D

How about you? What are your Ti/Ti faves?
 
How do you open the Kizer?

The Feist? It's a front flipper, so when it's closed a bit of the tang protrudes on the opposite side from a traditional flipper. I've seen folks open them a few different ways, but for my hands I have two options: "monkey grip" it nestled at the base of my fingers and flip with my thumb, or palm it and flip with my thumb.

You can see the protruding bit here:

This also reminded me that I've been remiss in updating my own thread -- here's my latest Ti/Ti acquisition, the Drop/Reate Prism. In a lot of ways it's the opposite of most of what I go for in knives, aesthetically, but something about it just clicks for me. :)
