I definitely agree with Dan on the layering and quilting, which is how I make my subarmalis.
Most people who have seen it say it looks quite capable of stopping something on its own.
I am sure if someone who knew what they were doing with this were to have made it, it most likely would be a very effective armour. Mind you, mine is worn under mail/armour, and is not quite 30 layers.
