Frequently Asked Questions: EnGarde® Anti-Stab Vests
What does NIJ-0115.00 Level 1 Blade and Spike protection actually mean?
The NIJ-0115.00 Level 1 certification means the armour has been rigorously tested to stop common street threats, including knives, broken glass, and improvised spikes like needles. Our EnGarde vests use ultra-thin TITANSKIN™ panels made from Teijin Aramid to absorb and safely distribute the impact of up to 24 Joules of force.
Will a stab-proof vest protect me from bullets?
No. Anti-stab vests are specifically engineered to stop edged weapons and puncturing threats, not ballistic threats. However, if you require both, the EnGarde® Rhino features integrated pockets that allow you to add NIJ Level III or Level IV hard armor plates for combined ballistic and stab protection.
Which EnGarde vest is best for my profession?
It depends on your daily operational needs. Choose the DeLuxe for discreet, under-clothing concealment (ideal for executive protection). Choose the Puma for visible, load-bearing utility with tactical pockets (ideal for security and transit). Choose the Rhino if you need a customizable MOLLE platform for heavy tactical gear.
How do I wash and maintain my EnGarde vest?
Maintenance is simple. First, remove the internal TITANSKIN™ protective panels. The external fabric carrier can then be machine-washed on a gentle cycle. To clean the anti-stab panels, simply wipe them down with a damp cloth. Never machine wash, iron, or bleach the internal protective panels.
Are these vests in stock and how fast do they ship?
Yes. Unlike many tactical suppliers with long lead times, our EnGarde® anti-stab vests are fully stocked in our Brisbane warehouse. This means your high-performance body armour is ready for immediate dispatch, ensuring you get the protection you need without the wait.
