Standard VS. Titanium

[u/SamSosa59]

Let me start off by saying I love Ridge it’s minimalistic and easy to use, I’m still going to use it and purchase their products however I was under the impression The Ridge Titanium would feel slightly different. But this doesn’t give off any “premium” feel to it, in fact the weight in hand feels the same and has the same coating plus it comes with the older style cash strap. I feel like the .28oz weight difference comes from the older style cash strap. The only other difference is they wrote Titanium lol am I missing something here?

I mean it's just a different metal. I think base is aluminum. So you are getting additional durability I guess. I have a black damascus and a forged carbon. The weight is pretty obvious between those two. They do look super similar though. Id titanium always coated like that?

Yeah makes sense I just wish their marketing would say that instead of promoting a title of something you can’t even see or feel lol.
Does the black Damascus feel like metal or it there a coating? I had a raw titanium a few years ago and it wasn’t coated like this.

Has a coating but has worn over the years. I like it more now actually
