Titanium itself might not react with the human body much, but in your shop environment, I must assume the titanium you cut yourself with is not sterilized or kept in clean room conditions. In other words, what might be on the metal? Coatings for whatever purpose, cleaners and lubricants and anti sieze compounds and who know what else that might be used in the processes you are involved in. The irritant might not be the metal itself.
