Diamond a weak material and can be cleaved very easily. However it is the one of the hardest materials on the planet. Titanium is a very tough an strong metal having great toughness and tensile and compressive strength. Hardness and strength are not the same. Glass is extremely hard but extremely weak.

Diamond is harder than titanium but not tougher or stronger. No metal has higher strength/weight ratio than titanium.

You can shatter a diamond with a bullet/blunt object with a medium amount of force. A bullet/blunt object would not make a single imprint on Titanium. For proof watch the video at the related link. (A man forging a titanium knife). At the 8:37 mark, he takes a sledgehammer with a six pound iron head on it, and smacks the knife blade (which is not even 1 CM thick) sideways as hard as he can, and not a single scratch.

Diamond comes from the Greek word Adamas (αδάμας), which means "Invincible". Titanium comes from the word "Titans", which in Greek mythology were incredibly powerful beings that challenged and defeated some Greek gods.
