titanium pans solved the non-stick problem
>steel spatulas cannot scratch it
>performs just as well as teflon pans
>expensive price filters out poor third worlders

Is it layered or some kind of alloy? Titanium actually has really shitty heat conductivity.

convenient how steel was left out of that comparison
I just use what the real kitchens use

the pan in the video is stainless steel with some % of titanium
>>
titanium is softer than steel. steel scratches titanium. Titanium is light. that's it's only benefit. in every application where weight isn't a huge factor, steel outperforms it.

The problem is in the use of the term “titanium”.
Most of these pans are likely not “pure titanium” or even an alloy that is primarily titanium.
The “titanium”, varies by the pan, with one pan being mentioned as being a stainless steel alloy containing titanium, and the other pans not really bring specified as to what the term “titanium” refers to.
I would suspect the “titanium” is actually a coating of some kind, maybe some sort of “titanium nitride”, which is usually applied using a vapor deposition process, that applies a thin surface coating, and which is routinely used as a durable surface coating for applying surface color costings to knives.
Titanium Nitride has a surface hardness around 85hrc, whereas a good hard tool steel chisel would probably max out at around 65hrc, at the maximum.
Titanium Nitride is also used on cutting tools to lower friction, and to increase wear resistance.
There are a number of similar variations to titanium nitride, such as titanium aluminum nitride.
There are also “titanium coated” scissors, that are readily available, and fairly cheap, were the titanium is a surface coating, used to make the blades of the scissors somewhat “non-stick” for use for cutting sticky materials such as tape.
I would suspect the “titanium” term in the pan name refers to a surface coating such as these.

Obviously as it works on all hobs so shitty induction too.

copper, aluminimum and teflon are all toxic to some extent. titanium is prohibitively expensive unless it's just a shitty titanium nitride coating and in that case, a good glazed cast iron or ceramic mogs the fucking thing for a fraction of the cost.

>copper
Is not used without ss or tin lining for regular frying.

>Cast iron prone to rust

Reminds me of those infomercials where the person is a complete retard and needs some completely unnecessary invention to abate their stupidity

>>21998968
Feds will invade your home and confiscate your pan to make sr 72 Blackedbird For ww3
This is a scheme to hide titanium reserves from spies

Why not use diamond at this point? Its literally the strongest metal, it can't be bad, and its expensive so it must be good
>>
>>21998968
Teflon. Just don't use it.
Cast iron is a heat sink, care for it and it won't rust.
Ceramic... Yeah its fragile but great if you treat it well.
Aluminum. Has heat issues but who needs a tuff pan? What are you doing with it that that it needs durability?
Copper. It's fine just don't scratch it and don't get thin lined pans. Thick copper is amazing.
>>
I just use all clad stainless steel. Yes they are semi pricey, but theoretically they last for your entire life.

I used to use cast iron, which most people are retarded about, and baby them way too much. But stainless steel for me is just better for responsiveness on the heat and easier to clean.

>>21998968
Kinda funny they didn't compare it to a stainless steel pan.

?

>>21998968
Here's an idea: just get teflon pans and don't dig at them with metal forks or spatulas, like a fucking retard. Problem solved.
>>
>>22001433
Why? Titanium pans perform just as well.
In professional kitchens, Teflon pans are treated as disposable equipment and are usually relegated to delicate tasks like cooking eggs only. These pans could become more versatile when you don't have to baby them like Teflon pans.
