Hey guys im attempting to make a balisong and have bought some specific materials to make it. I got some 3mm brass plates to use as handles and was going to use the sandwich technique to wrap my steel. So i went with 3mm thick brass so that it holds a decent tensile strength thinking brass is easy to work with but the sucker just wont move… i never worked with brass so i didnt know 3mm would be a fathermocker to bend. Can i heat the brass enough so that i can sandwich the plates around the thickness of the steel? If so what temps are we taking without melting it? Thanks a lot (any other advice is welcome too)
