How tough is Dyneema? Lets test it.

Backpackers and hikers are using dyneema gear more often these days but will it hold up? Watch as I stab, poke and cut a 1.43oz fabric sample. #appalachiantrail #backpacker #hiker #gear

Thank you for the demonstration. Most people talk about it but few people show how strong it is. For reference this is the dyneema that stuff sacks and some tents are made of. Backpacks use a 2.93oz/yd dyneema or 5oz/yd that has a polyester face and it is incredibly strong and puncture resistant but if you try hard enough can get dammed.

I appreciate you showing this because I e already wondered how durable it was
