Lets see your Titanium frame lock pix

This is the unique and difficult to find MFK-1 skeletonized folder from Mission Knives made in a proprietary titanium alloy. Missionite has superior wear resistance and can be “thru-hardened” to Rockwell C 47, while still maintaining its flexibility. At this strength and hardness, cutting edge retention is superior, plus, corrosion (including sea water) will not dull the knife's edge - a serious problem when using steel knifes. These knives are 40-50% lighter than their steel counterparts and nonmagnetic!/I]

Maybe Im missing something, but how can the "world's toughest knifes be all titanium blades that only reach a rockwell 47? isnt that just too soft? or does titanium perform differently at different strengths?

Somebody explain, because I really want to like this knife.
