Why is having the handle made of titanium a selling point? Other than getting to use the word "titanium"?

RochambeauxTitanium is lightweight (compared to steel), corrosion resistant, non magnetic, relatively inexpensive, and can be anodized attractively.
Do these features make for a better knife? That's kind of in the eye of the beholder. The benefits here are probably the capacity to have a framelock cut into the titanium scale (which the G10 scale couldn't support), and the rainbow anodizing job that makes the knife a little more attractive than otherwise.
