A loaf of bread with a stamped imprint found in Herculaneum and dated back to the first century AD, bears the name of its baker. Unearthed in 1930, this sourdough loaf was baked on the morning of August 24th, 79 AD. Turned to carbon and preserved by the oven it was baked in, the loaf endured the eruption of Mount Vesuvius, remaining intact through the ages.

I did found out that there are several Dyneema versions. Perhaps there is over the counter consumer material ?Melting point is about right. Dunno about having to burn through it to cut. Maybe in large diameters, but I have dyneema throwline, and can cut it fine with a knife. The throwline is 1.8mm, and has a breaking strength of 1k#

You have to get it online, or from an industry specific vendor. That's the only dyneema I personally use AFAIK, but it's also popular for light weight winch lines. 9mm amsteel has a breaking strength of 19,600 pounds...
