I have a sheet of .07" 6al4v for liner locks, but the other day I had an idea. I think it'd be really cool to use Ti for the handle of a Higo type knife, but the only problem is that I'd have to use Ti for the handle of a Higo type knife.

Would it be practical at all to try to bend this stuff? It would be around a diameter of ~1/8" or so. I have a mapp gas torch I could use to heat it but I don't know if that work. Any recommendations?
 
A MAPP torch should work, especially if it's only .07" thick.
