When I bought my Airborne in 2001, I opted for the titanium "Airborne" branded skewers; I'm not really sure why. They look nice, with anodized and laser-etched levers (external cam). They have held up fine for the last 20+ years. What I didn't expect was that when the bike arrived, the Ultegra skewers were in the box. I should weigh both sets to see how much weight is really saved; I'll bet it's not much.
I have another road bike and a mountain bike with steel skewers. In terms of performance (holding the wheels in place), I've noticed no difference between the steel and titanium.
