Using a plate carrier with custom-made plates as a form of protection from knives & needles?
I live in a shady area of town and I walk to work (night shifts) and I've had three altercations with random people (either drunk or just looking to rob someone) and the most recent time this happened someone pulled a big kitchen knife out.. Ever since I've wondered if I could create some custom plates out of cutting boards or other material and insert it in a low-profile plate carrier and protect my body from knife attacks.
Does anyone have any input on this or attempted to do something similar? thanks!
