Silk is known for its strength and durability, but it can be torn relatively easily under certain conditions. While it has a high tensile strength, excessive force, sharp objects, or rough handling can lead to tearing. Additionally, silk can be more vulnerable when wet, as moisture can weaken its fibers. Overall, while it's not as fragile as some may think, proper care is essential to prevent damage.
