From TI to TTI

[raptor]

material is getting better,workmanship is getting worse.

Care to expand on that a little?    Have you had problems with one recently then?

[Rob]

I carry a Ti and handle TTi's all the time.  Not noticed much of a difference in build quality but since I don't carry the TTi maybe I'm missing something.  Never had any complaints from customers though.  I'd also like to hear your problems.

[DaveK]

How do you mean raptor?

I don't actually have a Ti, but I do have an XTi and I wouldn't have said the workmanship was any better than my TTi. Has yours dropped to bits or something?

[Leatherman123]

Yeah, I'm curious too! I would say the TTi is built better, if anything!

[raptor]

the diamond file is not neat as before,when opened ,it rubs against the titanium handel.and the serrated blade is not sharp as before.

[Leatherman123]

All of my Charge's ( have the diamond file rub. How is the serrated blade duller than before?

[Poncho65]

Could just be different ppl on the assembly (how they put it together) , some not as particular as others. just a thought though but I try not to do that much

Raptor, my TTI Camo has a 154cm instead of a S30v blade. Is your problem worse?

Gene, for me there is no problem with your TTi camo. It could be a US military issue. S30V or 154CM is a good knife material.

[Teofilo]

could be.

[Spoonrobot]

Eh, the file rubs on my 2004 Ti so I don't think workmanship has gotten worse in 4 years. It's just one of those things, like the PowerLock bottle opener/lock engagement problem.
