    I'd like to see a cut test. Dyneema is an UHMWPE fiber. It's designed to resist cutting and abrasion, especially braided. A trilobite will go through normal cave line like butter, but UHMWPE/LCP and similar fibers, not quite so much. There's also very little stretch and it's often fairly stiff so I'd be curious to see how easy is is to work with.
