My impression was that any synthetic line under tension would be alot easier to cut then when it is not under tension.
Actually I'm using this trick to get nice sharp endings on my lines.
But lets test it with D12. Tensioning a piece of it tightly and then make a cutting movement with a sharp knife. Alot of lines will be surprisingly easy cut in halves

Wouter,
I agree with you, D12 under tension will probably cut easily. I am considering it for a set of shrouds on my F16
However, I am not so sure it will cut easily when not under tension, so at the moment, I am not going to use it for trapeze lines.
