This non-cuttable metal material sounds extremely useful: > "Security applications such as doors or barriers (as protection from forcible entry attacks) are obvious ones. However, our material technology could also be useful for enhancing the cutting resistance of shoe soles or protective clothing. Workers could benefit from non-cuttable elbow pads or forearm guards in environments with industrial tools." As someone…
So how do you shape/use it during manufacturing?
Waiting for this to exist in an Abus lock so my storage unit can stop being broken into my tweakers.
It only protects you from tweakers armed with cutters. Industrious tweakers with better tools at their disposal might be able to crush it or melt it.

> ... hardness may not be a fundamental property of a material but rather a composite one including yield strength, work hardening, true tensile strength, modulus of elasticity, and micro properties such as strength of atomic bonds. Now that is pretty interesting. It seems they tuned the material to resist the angle grinder, drill and water jet but it would be interesting to see its ballistic resistance.
I note that they didn't really cover that territory, and wonder if that was lack of facilities or avoiding the tough questions.
