Steel Toe VS Composite Toe

I would suppose the end result of weight on steel toes would depend on where the weight hit the cap. Hitting the bow of the cap would be the strongest, the rear of the cap over the last knuckles of the toes would be the weakest.

I saw the impression where a 10klb forklift (lift capacity) drove over a dock workers foot (how'd he not notice that?) and smushed the cap down to the contrete, leaving the aformentioned impression. The dude couldn't take off his boot, but he wasn't hurt either.
