High,
I was wondering if it would be possible to take a Lionsteel SR1 and put a hammer finish on the titanium handle.
I am getting married in April and my future wife wants to buy me a knife that matches my wedding band. The band is a black in color, hammered finish titanium.

So far I have not been able to find a knife that matches this perfectly.

Here is a picture of the ring: black-titanium-domed-hammered-finished-wedding-band-QGRG-TB385C.jpg

Thanks!
 
The problem is that hammering on the titanium handle will warp the nicely-machined screw and pivot holes all out of shape. It's possible to do if one made an "anvil jig" with hard pins through all the holes and flat plate inside the handle, but the possibility for failure is very high.
 
Yeah. Like Mecha said...actual hammering will displace material which'll screw with the fit of anything attatched to the handle.

But.....Jigging the titanium with some kind of rotary tool would probably work better.
