| I doubt that the material will matter as much as the balade construction. Texalium is simply fiberglass with an microscopic aluminum coating on one side. I have no idea how they use the titanium, i.e. thin sheet, strands, woven strands... As far as pure mechanical properties, the fiberglass.texalium is WAY stiffer and stronger than titanium. I doubt that this will really matter for TT blades though. bes |
