I'm new to knife making but I've had my fair share of experience with Titanium dive knives. I'm a certified diver and used to work in a large dive shop. They are expensive and very popular sell to divers....but I've seen a lot of them get broken becuase divers try to use them as a pry bar, which they are used to doing with SS dive knives. The only reasons I heard for divers buying them was 1) corrosion resistance, 2) its expensive so it must be better. I always loved the look of them, but I always prefered a good SS knife. A little silicone grease rubbed on the blade and I've never had knife rust on me yet. I know its not exactly the info you were looking for, but thats from a divers point of view if it helps at all.
