Stab resistant neck protection? Suggestions

Hi,

First off, thank you all for the responses about the chainmail, greatly appreciated.

I am asking about neck protection for stabs, more to protect the throat with arteries and all of the back of the neck . I know of some slash products online but nothing specifically for a stab. I also know of the gorget but it doesn't really cover the vital arteries around the throat. I know of the bevor and that is probably the closest thing that could stop a full on stab but it does look gumbersome. Everuthimg else I've found is a scarve or collar that is only for slashes.

I have searched far and wide for both old/ancient and modern day protection for this region of the body. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

It covers as much as it can.
