Rich, don't waste your money...not just IMO, but IME.

Unless you gotta lot to spare. That stuff started out to compete with Snap-Ons race(read lightweight) stuff. We've used 'em in the Baja 500 last year and the cost didn't equate to the value. Under heavy usage and stress loads Titanium deflects and wears out way too fast. When it fails it isn't pretty. At least with the steel you have it bend instead of shatter. We ended up borrowing tools and when we went in for the forever exchange even the sales guy said there'd been so many returns that they were thinking of making it a team or catalog item only.
