Vulcan Steel, Parker Steel, Parker Special Steel, Titanic Steel, Acme Steel, Peerless Steel, Whitworth Steel barrels are all Fluid Pressed Steel.
Twist, Stub Twist, Plain Twist, Laminated Steel, Damascus Steel, Bernard Steel are all Composite Steel and are made from individual strips or leaves of iron and steel layered in a pattern and then twisted and finally wound around a mandrel and hammer-welded for a desired pattern. .

I am glad that the Parker "Titanic" barrels were years before the sinking of the Titanic Could of been akin to naming them the "Edsel" barrels

Parker may have borrowed "Titanic Steel" from Robert Mushet, who adapted the Bessemer Process in 1856 by adding manganese (speigeleisen) and established the Forest Steel Works in Darkhill, Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire possibly producing the first Carbon Steel.
He also experimented with tungsten, titanium, and other alloys and established the Titanic Steel Works in 1862 for production of his "Titanic Steel". 1870 https://books.google.com/books?id=9s...J&pg=PA141&lpg
