RE: slash and stab resistant clothing
Have you looked at the stuff stretch armstrongs used to be or still are made from...

A novel application of rubber is in Stretch Armstrongâ„¢ marketed by Cap Toys (originally manufactued by Kenner Toys) and Drastic Elasticâ„¢ from Just Toys, Inc. These consist of action figures approximately 15 inches high that can be stretched up to four or five feet in length. According to a representative from Cap Toys, the skin of the Stretch Armstrongâ„¢ figure is composed of rubber latex. The body is filled with a material made from a boiled corn syrup with some moisture removed so that it forms a gel with some flow characteristics and with some memory properties. Thus, when stretched and released, the figure returns to its original shape by elastomeric recovery of the rubber skin.

Boiled corn syrup as a bullet catcher ??
maybe just strap a load of stretch armstrongs over you...TongueTongueTongue
I tried to be normal once.... Worst two minutes of my life...
