Wheezen,
I have made a few knives out of Titanium, it is excellent for it lightness and it is tough. Titanium doesn't take a razors edge like hardened steel, but when defending yourself, you don't need a knife that is sharp. I was a guild Knifemaker for many years, I still have the knowledge, I just make knives for special orders and don't do shows any more.
When I am in the field, I carry two knives, one is a Tanto what has a fairly straight edge to it and can be pushed thru a lot of man made materials. The other one is a "Damascus" small skinner. The handled have gone thru a polymerization process so they are pretty water proof.
Just like pistol or a rifle, a good knife is an excellent tool to have when you are in the fields or the woods.
