Cylinders' shape

What I noticed is that the cylinder's end of Titan and AMS are different. In case of Titian it is rather roundish while AMS has more of a "sharp" pointy tip. Does it mean that Titan is less likely to cause an erosion over time?

I looked at both implants in my doctors office before making my choice for the AMS 700LGX. The Titan I saw had noticeably sharper tips than the AMS. And, my tips are definitely round, not sharp, in fact the demo AMS model appeared to have the tips made from a different material than the rest of the shafts and my tips are solid for about the first 1/2". So, based on what I saw and the shape of my own implants, the AMS does not have sharp tips. As for erosion I don't know? I haven't heard Titan owners complaining about the tips? I am just guessing but I believe the tip erosion could be more influenced by improper sizing.

My AMS tip is definitely rounded. At least the tip under the glans.

Perhaps I messed up and the opposite is true. AMS is round while Titan is sharp :roll:
