The vest is nice and will definitely serve its purpose in case of an attack with a dangerous tool, but I have two comments. The first thing is the vest material itself – it’s not Cordura, just some kind of polyester material imitating Cordura. It’s thinner and feels more delicate – I don’t know how durable it will be with intensive use. For occasional use it will be okay, but with daily use in tougher conditions or with a backpack, it may wear out quite quickly. This isn’t an opinion based on tests, just my experience with other equipment made of similar materials (backpacks, organizers, vests, etc.). The second thing is the adjustment of the shoulder straps – the Velcro does its job, but in my opinion, there’s a bit too little of it. I’m 195 cm tall and have a 126 cm chest, and when fully adjusted, there isn’t enough Velcro to fasten it – because of this, the vest sits a bit too high under my chin and exposes my stomach a little. This can be fixed by sewing on more Velcro to increase the adjustment range, but that shouldn’t be necessary to improve the product. It’s a pity that the manufacturer skimped on a few centimeters of Velcro – just a few cents more and the product would be perfect. Overall, I recommend the product 👍

The vest looks great, gives a sense of security, and appears professional. I wish the Velcro straps on the shoulders were a bit longer, which would allow for better adjustment for people of different builds and heights. Swapping out the metal plates for others is simple if needed. Due to its weight of around 2 kg, it is not the most comfortable to wear, but security personnel and people involved in safety may find this vest a good option.

So far it hasn't been tested "in action" and I hope it never will be, but I'm sure that if something were to happen on the street, it would protect me from danger.

I got the vest from my boyfriend. Last night, it saved my health when, walking down the street, I was punched in the stomach for no reason by some guy (probably under the influence of drugs). Luckily, I had the vest under my oversized T-shirt. It did its job. I felt the blow only minimally. There were no marks left on my body. I am convinced that if it weren't for the vest, given my small build, such a blow could have serious health consequences. I'm lowering the rating due to poor fit, as it isn't fully adapted for people of my size (160cm, 46kg). A smaller size would be useful. Also, it's hot to wear in the summer and quite stiff, which makes it hard to bend over, e.g., if you drop something. Nevertheless, despite the downsides, I highly recommend this vest. I feel much safer having it on, especially now, after it's proven itself and saved my health. You can hide it under a hoodie, jacket, puffer vest, loose dress, or oversized T-shirt.

It provides great protection and is a high-quality vest. It fits the body very well, both under and over clothes, it's comfortable and doesn't cause discomfort. I highly recommend it to those whose work involves getting close to suspicious people! For example, it's very useful for security workers and railway patrols while on duty, etc. I recommend it!

The stab-resistant vest is very well made, and the most important thing is that it's resistant to all kinds of attacks with knives and machetes. I can especially recommend it to security employees; it's better to have it on in the event of a sudden attack.

I once received it as a gift. For a long time, I didn't have a chance to use it, but that one time I did, it worked 100%: it stopped several shots from an airgun without any problems.

This is a very solid vest. For smaller people, it may be a bit too large but generally, it doesn't affect the use of the vest at all. You can adjust the vest to fit you thanks to the Velcro. It's worth having such equipment.

I got the vest as a gift due to late returns from work. Today tested in street conditions. Not a knife, but a broken bottle. At least 3-4 hits to the chest and stomach. The vest managed, I am safe and sound. I recommend it to everyone.

The vest is as described and shown in the photo. It is light and easy to adjust. Puncture resistant.

Lightweight. Comes with a carry bag. Fits well. Comfortable. Fits under a T-shirt. Just in case the SHTF. Always be prepared.

I haven't had the chance to test the vest's function yet, but it fits very well on the body both under and over clothing, is comfortable, and causes no discomfort. I recommend it.

Solid workmanship. I recommend it.

The vest serves its purpose. The test carried out by the Militaria store is nothing compared to what I did. The insert of the vest was subjected to moderate and heavy force from: butterfly knife, small/large kitchen knife, small/large flat screwdriver, chisel, crowbar, large hammer, and two different short airguns. The plate that was mainly tortured is a bit dented and scratched but was not punctured anywhere. The whole insert is still intact and can continue to be used. I recommend it.

I highly recommend it, especially for people who live in neighborhoods where it's not hard to get into trouble. It's light and comfortable to wear. Cheers
