sistem_32Weight only matters because titanium will be an alternative to steel. Aluminum has similar benefits. I think of titanium as being really strong. You see it a lot on high end knife handles. I think artificial bones are often titanium, for example.

sistem_32I don't think the idea behind this is about weight savings at all for this particular product... But more about reusability. Easy to always have one on you, not just hiking/camping.
So you make it out of metal so it's reusable, then you make it out of titanium because everyone and their brother loves titanium, and because you're a knife maker that has plenty of titanium cutoffs laying around lol
I'm still sticking with my original opinion though. I think we've all picked our teeth with something metal at some point, but I'm not about to make a habit of it. (already wore a groove in a tooth when i was younger by constantly playing with a tongue ring lol and that was a smooth round bar, no pointy bit)

I could be overlooking something, but I fail completely to see the point of this product. Isn't the whole reason one pays a premium for titanium stuff that it's lightweight? I can understand that for items like dishes, but aren't wooden toothpicks light enough already? And, as @Kavik pointed out, aren't they better for your teeth anyway? This seems like an overpriced gimmick to me.
Considering how many people have bought it, however, I could be wrong.
