Congrats to Abby!  Huzzah!  

And now for something completely different...

Has anyone out there ever tried cut testing against
picklebarrel plastic?  Has anyone ever tried to hack
it with a sword or axe?  Shot it with an arrow?  Does
the plastic deform upon impact enough to take away the
momentum of the blow before it can cut?  Does a hit to
an edge of the plastic make it shear like steel or
does it resist?  Does the plastic fold around a blade
and pinch it to keep it from penetrating?  Do arrows
(target or broadhead) completely penetrate it, get
stuck in it, or glance off?  Does a thrusting weapon
make a hole that tries to self-close, severely slowing
the blade?  Does anyone know anyone who may have done
similar experiments?  These are just some random armor
thoughts that have been going through my head.

Thanks,

Mike
