Tungsten carbide is about twice the density of carbon steel, and if you take a regular hacksaw to a chunk of
tungsten carbide that has a highly polished surface, you won't even scratch it.
Carbon Steel: 0.284 pounds/in^3
Tungsten Carbide: 0.565 pound/in^3
That's amazing to me...a single cubic inch of WC is more than half a pound.
