It typically takes about 14 psi (pounds per square inch) to puncture human skin. However, the exact amount can vary depending on factors such as the thickness of the skin, the angle of the object, and the force behind the puncture.

How much force is needed to puncture average human skin?

It depends on the size of the point of the instrument doing the puncturing (i.e. a needle takes only a little force, but a bullet takes quite a bit). What you really need is how much pressure does it take to puncture skin. I don't believe there is a tested exact amount of pressure required to pierce human skin. One theoretical number taken from the paper linked below is: (3.183 x10^6 Pa)this is bull **** the femur can't take that much its is really 20000Pa 461.7 PSI (Pounds per square inch) http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/&toc=comp/proceedings/icmens/2003/1947/00/1947toc.xml&DOI=10.1109/ICMENS.2003.1221960
