    I don't know exactly what you are looking for but tungsten carbide
    is used as far as I know primarily for cutting tools and electrodes
    for TIG welding. I'm trying to find out some answers about the
    working and forging properties of titanium now as a matter of fact. I
    plan to use it in knife hilts and pommels as well as some formed or
    forged bracelets. and also possibly machining some jewelery on CNC
    machinery. Perhaps we can help each other with the research. 

Good Luck
Harry
