Why titanium? Because it's awesome. Seriously... awesome, not joking here.
Even
though titanium is much, much harder to machine its specific strength
(strength to weight) is impressive and it is naturally corrosion
resistant. Plus, it looks great.
Tell me more about this "titanium" stuff. In short,
titanium is about 45 percent lighter than steel, 60 percent heavier than
aluminum and more than three times stronger than either of them. We've
decided to go with Grade 5 / 6AL4V (medical and aerospace grade) titanium which is significantly stronger than commercially pure titanium while having the same stiffness. This grade is an excellent combination of strength, corrosion resistance, weld and fabricability (although it's a bear to machine). These
titanium pens are CNC'ed on a multi-axis precision lathe. Both the
body and tip will be run to .001" tolerances.
