![]() Shooting the Safe Life Defense Soft Body Armor Both blades are very sharp so I can say for sure the vest does what it is supposed to do. We debated stabbing it, but since Safe Life Defense made no claim against stabbing we didn’t think that would be fair. So I repeated this test with my Ka-Bar Becker BK9 Combat Bowie Fixed Blade Knife and we could not slash through the vest with that blade either. Our friend bob was safe behind the Safe Life vest even though it made a few marks. The Ka Bar is more of a very sharp machete than a true sword. I broke out my “ Ka Bar Zombie War Sword”. Before we shot it we wanted to test out how it would do against slashing since Safe Life Defense said it could defend against that threat. We set it up on a “ Bob” Punching Dummy which is basically an armless torso made by Century Martial Arts. The next day I drove out to my friend’s property where he has a private range to test out how well the Safe Life vest would hold put under fire because this is what is really important in body armor. At the end of the night she handed the vest back in the bag I got with the vest, and I then threw it in the back of my car because the next day the vest was going to be destroyed by a hail of gunfire. The vest is also water resistant, but I did not test this. I think this was because that Safe Life Defense built in a cooling mesh lining. One thing she did mention to me is that even though it was pretty warm in the house she wasn’t hot at all wearing the vest. It doesn’t disappear into nothingness, but in today’s world where people are turned into zombies by their cell phones I don’t think anyone would notice outside other than law enforcement. I do have to say it is probably a little less detectable than my other vest. Since it does cover around the 15% more than my other vest that I had I figured that it was also going to be 15% more detectable than my other vest. I was surprised how little printing the vest did. I then had her try the Safe Life Defense Soft Body Armor vest under her shirt to see how detectable it was under clothing. After a couple of hours of wearing it she stated that she even forgot that she had it on. This is saying something for the vest because she is someone who has never wore any type of body armor in her life. ![]() She told me that the vest was comfortable. The vest has a 10 point adjustable system with 4 comfort straps. She first wore the Safe Life vest on the outside. So shortly before dinner I had to ask the awkward question of if she would mind wearing a bulletproof vest for the rest of the night. I was interested to see how well it fit on my wife, but then it hit me that my wife was 8 months pregnant, and she wasn’t about to put on a Kevlar vest. Safe Life Defense Multi-Threat Soft Body Armor IMG from The vest arrived on a Friday. This made me wonder how it could be so easy to move around in and still be as concealable as they claim. They also claim the vest covers 15% more area than their competitors vest. Another cool thing is that Safe Life Defense claims that it is ultra-concealable, and it is very easy to move around in. The vest is not only rated for handgun rounds, but also is rated against strikes and slashes from bladed weapons. The vest I was sent was made of Dupont Kevlar. This means I would destroy the vest, but this is the only way I would know if the results were true or not. I was going to put this vest to the test by shooting it for the Ammoland readers. This means the vest should be able to stop most handgun rounds. I decided on a Safe Life Defense Concealable Multi-Threat Soft Body Armor This vest is NIJ.06 iiia certified. Since Safe Life Defense were currently out of my size I ordered up a vest in my wife’s size to test out.
