I have a Devestator and a Guardian... As far as getting cut through, i think the Devestator has held up alot better for me than the Guardian... However, the issues ive had with mine are the seams coming undone on the vest... ( not from being cut by hogs )
Is it possible that having several different fabricators making these vest could be the issue?
Maybe one company is not sewing the vest as good as the others...

Vest are going to get cut regardless of who makes them, but to purchase a $200 vest and 3 months later have to throw more
money into it to have flaps, collars, straps and buckles sewn back on from faulty seams is alittle different...
I
think that for alot of people ( including me this next go around ), If a vest is going to need to be fixed/replaced frequently, it will be more logical to purchase a good quality vest that is 1/2 the price ( since either one is going to get cut up regardless ) that the maker is willing to quickly replace or fix if any issue occurs...
I do think that UD has the best designed vest, and alittle stouter sewing job and an easier way to have a vest fixed would make it more justifiable to pay that amount for a vest...
