Stab vest

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A stab vest is a reinforced article of clothing, usually worn under other clothing, which is designed to resist knife attacks. Stab vests are different from bulletproof vests, most of which offer little protection against stabbing with sharp-tipped objects such as knives.

[edit] Distinguish from "stab jacket"

A stab vest is completely different from a stab jacket (short for "stabilizer jacket"), which is a type of buoyancy compensator used for scuba diving.
