Armour resistant to knife attack comprises a flexible sheet (2) having a threat side facing a direction of threat and a protected side adjacent, in use, an area to be protected, and a plurality of armour plates (4) attached to the sides of the sheet (2), the plates (4) being grouped such that a first group attached to the protected side is in overlapping registration with a second group attached to the threat side, the registration being such that exposed regions of sheet (2) on the threat side register with the first group of plates (4) so preventing penetration of the armour through the exposed regions. By placing the overlapping groups on separate sides of the sheet, the armour is made more flexible than arrangements where the plates are mounted on the same side and are in engagement. |
