I'll start by saying I know Ti isn't ideal. But follow that up with my goal is something I can carry backpacking, and saving weight. I'd really like it to be under 7oz with handle.
I am planning betta Ti, and precipitation hardening. And wrapping the handle with para-cord.
Thinking 4mm thick, and probably strategic weight reduction, I'd like to somehow make the back a little wider so it could be used as a crappy hammer but mostly so you could pound it into a log with another log type thing.
So with the idea of it needing to be light, do I have a chance of it not being useless? It's pretty expensive to fail hard at my attempt, lol.
I am a little worried about it's strength if used like a pry par a bit.
