Are they by chance hiring for the mister stabby position?
sirkekes
pretty cool
zyxzevn
Does it protect against my cat?
Kitakita
imagine walking into a public building and stabbing yourself, only to realize that you forgot to wear your fancy shirt
catsandcoke
Where are you people that someone is attacking you with a machete?! I live in a civilized country where we get shot thank you.
onewaytrip
Give it to prisoners.
wylwrk
Okay, now STAB him.
BoardHands
Wow what did that guy do to piss everyone off?
AwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwYiiiiiiiis
But can this shield me from Murder Hornets?
nousernamesleftforthekids
I want some for clearing blackberries
Becker37
Looks hotter than shit. I'd die from a lack of air flow long before getting stabbed
ThoughtSandwich
I am sure police would appreciate this products.
Blimymyhat
How timely. Remember to gear up for your costco raiding party, the stockers all carry razor knives and fight dirty.
BassNAss
How do you wash it, how long will the material last, and most importantly what does it cost?
VoodooMamaGonza
So it's basically mithril.

Jjaammeesss
But what about stabs
lenonymes
It'll stop the blade from penetrating but still completely fuck your day up...and a lot of days afterwards while you recover from the injury

Mithril’s been around a long time, now these jokers are trying to rebrand it!?

Evenmorehorrifying
As someone who used to wear 3A soft armor every day, it's super uncomfortable, and this would be a nice comfort of a change.
steam1218
also make hugs less awkward. My aunt has to wear it for work and giving her a hug always feel like anti-hug barrier.
BetterOffSingle
The stab resistance is from 5mm polycarbonate. The slash resistant is from a dense polyethylene fiber. Neither stops a bullet like 3A armor.
HieronymousFlex
Yeah, this would be great for prison guards.
bloodlustunicorn
But 3A has a level of ballistic protection. This is just slash / stab not ballistic.
BSwann
Not everywhere is a gun riddled shithole...
skelitor120
But if your job requires you to wear 3A armor, you're definitely in a place where you need it, bud.
I'm looking into these. The sleeves look good for some protection from animal attacks at least. They are 50% off all May on their site.
Could you link me their site, please?
https://www.slash-pro.com/arm-guards Be sure to change the currency field to wherever you're at.
PraiseTheMachineGod
Yeah, now try stabbing instead of cutting and chopping.
ImMrFrundles
You obviously didn't watch the very start of the video
ImgGnuu
You didn't look close enough. Stop the Video where he gets stabbed and you will see a massive plate under his shirt. Shit be fake yo
ramshead91
Additionally if he was stabbing with the knife and it was stopping we'd see force transfer.

MultiplePersonalitiesProfile
Or you can move to Europe, just saying.
llortamai
Y'all don't have knives?
We do, we’re just far less willing to use them against people, in average.
I live in London, where stabbing is “rampant” for European standards. I’m not scared at all, but that’s probably cause I was born in Brazil.
Tajik
If you can afford this stuff you probably don't live in an area where you need it.

Its for people like prison guards.
Sure, but like bulletproof cars and such, it's less for when you're safely at home, and more for when you're in public or traveling.
I live in a good area but the social housing is pretty close. I’m sure the planners do that on purpose to break up the pockets of low income

Chances are if you're worried about zombies wearing this, you're too close to them already

Reminds me of the tough guy substitute teacher with a chest cast under his shirt the kids didn’t know about. The classroom windows were 1/
Open and his tie kept flipping in his face so he stapled it to his chest. No problems with the kids acting up after that.
TakWriterOfWorlds
Not for the emo kids.
Markamanic
Whatever happened to those

Hooishais6
So if you get slashed your neck/arm/whatever is safe. If you get stabbed you are about to have a expensive balaclava in your throat
Euronyme
Someone call the museum. We need the plate mail back in action.
Delta2Almanac
Imagine paramedics trying to cut this off because you got stabbed on the toe.
Refyougee
yeah, armour only tends to work where it's worn. who knew?
pyr666
better than having a knife in there.
Dapro1
Did you watch the entire gif? It shows stabbing...
CanineEuphoria
It’s a compromise between flexibility and protection. There are different options with their own drawbacks.
spaceystacey
I like you. Any chance you are in the science or research field?
BisonMooseDuck
It protected against stabbing in the video
JoeT85
what about the guy that tested the first version that didn't work as expected.

Just say no stabsies at the start

Mmmm balaclava is delicious

Baklava?

No thats a mask i think you meant the dessert baccarat

No that’s a card game. I think you mean buccaneer.
No that's a pirate i think you meant Barbarossa
No that's another pirate. I think they meant bachelor
oldguyexlurker
The first part of the video appears to be showing it as stab-resistant. But, yeah... exposed areas are toast.
Can't drive around in your APC all day. So you want them to make essentially a Burka out of this?
lljkstonefish
Dumb and Dumber. What if they shot me in the face?
Alfadorfox
If you don't know the target is wearing body armor, you'd usually shoot for center of mass so you have a better chance of hitting them.
I caught a lot of trash talk in Team Fortress 2 for taking body shots with the Sydney Sleeper because I actually hit the targets more than
when I tried for headshots with the default rifle.
the first part shows it made into a vest, its way thicker than any of the other parts
SamuthNBS
Could be worn over some kind of padding to protect against the pain
It does appear to be significantly more rigid.
ItsBDC
Personal experience so take with grain of salt, more likely to get stabbed than slashed in an altercation. I'd rather get stab proof but...
I think that is too big to reasonably conceal right?
SilentSecretMan
Go for the neck and face.
Safebox36
*furiously writing*...and the face. Got it!
Metalgearslade
Great advice for the guy in the fucking video...? Goober.
PardusXY
People are way more likely to attack a part of the body that doesn't have them viewing the gore after the fact.
GeneralNuclear
etherbunny41
Armor's hidden under the clothes. Gives you a free stab to respond. Attacker might already be running thinking they're done.
don’t give them ideas
AlexjoneswatchingTporn
Most knife attacks are on the chest thats why stab vests exist

That was a risk we were willing to take...
SharkswithFrigginLazerBeams
How come I didn't get a gun?
ThisDique
Let's be real. The guy wasn't properly motivated.
They should probably hire convicts who have stabbed people to death to truly test this vest.

"Kill boss, debunk product, default on mortgage? ...or, and hear me out here, just play along...?"
The clip demonstrates a balaclava that helps protect the neck and face..
CaldariBob
Good thing balaclavas are too tough to yank off...
R3mmy
If he sees your balaclava is magic armoured too he might go for the eyes
That’s a tough target to hit in the heat of the moment.

You have weird ways of getting to know people I gotta say

outside of a job site, and even then it's would be a 'permit to work' which is basically just telling people what you're doing & where
It’s a joke about the British government, and not a stereotype about the British people.

DeviousByNature
Yeah I was only thinking earlier how I've not been stabbed since the lockdown started. Seriously what the fuck.

I also haven't been stabbed, or stabbed anyone. What a confusing time.
Oh ok stabbing others? That I've done.
