A standard vest worn by police. Consists of several layers and is capable of reducing the impact of knife attacks. In-game description


The Stab Vest is a vest in DayZ and was worn by the Chernarus Police Department before the outbreak. It consists of several layers of woven para-aramid fibers which are capable of reducing the impact of knife attacks and some ballistics.

Capable of stopping small and intermediate rounds in addition to providing decent protection against melee attacks this lightweight vest also reduces shock damage from both.

This vest appears frequently on police infected, as well as being lootable from police buildings, which makes it a common early-game choice for protection. However, it is inferior to the Ballistic Vest in protection and storage space, and should be swapped out when possible.
