What can you say about the Titanum Challenge by titaniumchallenge

[TitaniumKay]

From what we've learned, we believe that the Titanium Challenge was done by the same company who tries to promote their own rings. In my opinion, extremely bias attitude.

I think the whole point of any test is to display how Tungsten will withstand the abuse of daily wear and tear. I have a Tungsten ring and it's perfect after 6 months of abuse....i'd hate to know what it feels like to get hit with a hammer at that degree of force with on my ring finger, so i'll just be happy with my purchase!

I like the scratches on my gold wedding band. It signifies the passage of time.

I had a tungsten carbide ring for less than two weeks. It was a carbon fibered inlay one made by Triton retailing for $450.00. I accidentally dropped it at work in the bathroom when cleaning it,  and it cracked completely through it!! watch the Scott Kay Video's. Lots of proof!!!!

I hate advertisments

So let me get this straight...I send you my Tungsten carbide ring, you smash it with a hammer just like you did in the video, and then you send the results/pieces back to me in the mail? What the hell kind of "challenge" is that? LOL

@taliban0king if it comes out of a mold, its CAST. if its FORGED, it means its shaped by hand as it cools and is still red hot.

@Xephirox900 Yes, tungsten is used in the filament of incandescent light bulbs, as it has a VERY high melting point (I think it's the highest of any metal...over 6,000 degree Fahrenheit, or something crazy like that). The filament emits light by getting very hot through its resistance to the electric current passing through it, causing it to glow. Other metals would melt at the temperatures that the filament is subjected to.

My jewelry company sells Tungsten carbide rings, Titanium rings, stainless steel and other exotic materials not formerly associated with jewelry. We don't tell any of our customers that Tungsten is "indestructable". We do say that it is scratch "Resistant", will not bend, but we do state it can shatter, and explain why. We also dispell the myth about not being able to remove the ring in an emergency, and explain how that's done. Because we're up front and honest, we get many sales and repeats.
