It's my understanding that really pure tungsten is harder than steel and still malleable. It's with impurities that it becomes brittle. And tungsten carbide is always brittle as hell.

Brittle as hell is true, but this is important. Tungsten can NOT be cut. If you injure your hand and it swells, you will NOT be able to cut the ring off. This is unlike gold or other "soft" metals. However, Tungsten can be crushed and caused to shatter. This is important because in the above case, you can take pliers and apply pressure and cause it to shatter to get the ring off in emergencies.
Also, the ring doesn't scratch which is a bonus for me.
You need a hug.

Custom platinum that my wife had done up. Pretty intricate with a braided platinum pipe down the middle. I didn't care what I got, but I get a lot of compliments.
After my recent weight loss I had to get a new ring or keep putting masking tape on my old one.
